Newbie on FileMan and Perl.
After i download the fileman.zip single user version and set all the required path and file/folders with the specified permssion.
However, the fileman.cgi always come out with the error below: (I am running RedHat 6.0 Linux)
---------------------------------------

The error log from /var/log/httpd/error_log is:

Premature end of script headers:/home/httpd/cgi-bin/fileman/fileman.cgi


I am using vi as the editor and edit/change the config just after unzip.

1) Make sure that your fileman.cgi file is 755 (rwxr--r--).

2) Make sure you have the correct Perl Path in the first line of the file.

3) Set the $db_iss variable in the config file to 1 if you are on NT and 0 if you are not on NT.

Dear Sirs

1) The perl fileman was set to 755 (rwxr-xr-x).
2) Yes, the path was correct. Since i also write a PERL "Hello World" using the same #!/usr/bin/perl and at the same cgi-bin directory.
3) I am using Linux.

I want to ask if there any special PERL library that the FileMan used?
