ok i figured it out i think...

I was putting my kareha files in /var/www/html/ I can't execute perl scripts from that directory. SO I moved my kareha files to /usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/ and I was able to execute the perl script from my browser, but I get a 500 Internal Error.

What do I have to do to Apache's httpd.conf file to enable me to run scripts in /var/www/html/ ??
