no output
Hi, I instaled your program and set it up, and it is the active 500 error doc, B-U-T there's no error details either in the returned page (for my
IP) or in the logfile! any ideas?
test file is http://novaurl.com/wfw/test.cgi
log file is http://novaurl.com/500.log

Nothing, even though Apache's error log dose have an error for each event of test.cgi that throws an error, and although 500.pl is evoked as an
error doc.
I wonder what could be wrong?

Error log is maintained by the web server no matter if our script is working or not. If you can't see any changes to error log then there is some
problem with the server itself. once you get error log working you'll see what's wrong with our script by reviewing the messages in the log.

huh?
What in the world, that I said would make you think that Apache's own error log wasn't functioning?
I reread my two posts like nine times, and I certainly never said that... It works fine, I installed your error handling script to see if I could
get better, or at least more convenient, reports.
Now, every evocation of 500.pl goes off without firing any error (in itself). but it dose not convey any error data in it's middle field or log,
even though the error which caused it (500.pl) to be evoked, itself generated an error in the log. This is Server: Apache/2.0.48 on Redhat
"Fedora" (a hardened linux with minimalist permissions), could that be it? I think it's got more to do with the Apache version than the
O/S myself....

that was "no error details in the logfile" that made me think log file wasn't functioning.
What happens when you access the script directly by its url i.e.
http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/500.pl

Solution
Yes this was a painful thread to read. Your script was failing to show reporting information because either A): you did not give permissions
(--rw--r--r-) to the apache error_log file; or B): You did and failed to restart your Apache Server after implementing the script.
Peace Out

if you hosting provider offers web based control panel then open file manager, navigate to the file and set the permissions with the checkboxes (owner
- read/write, group - read, world - read). if you have access to the system via the console and you have rights to change permission on this file then
the command is chmod 644 filename
