Hi Rob

this ancient thread might be of some assistance; it seems to describe a
similar problem to yours.
https://archive.midrange.com/web400/200711/msg00027.html

Are you looking at the CGI logs or the apache logs or both ?

Kevin,
Many thanks. I am pretty sure that I have tried that before, without
success, but to be absolutely sure, I tried it again.

As before, the first screen displayed correctly, but, for the second
screen, I got a 500 Internal Server error with Cannot read script output
pipe. The log showed
[Mon Dec 03 15:21:12 2018] [error] [client 192.168.2.210] ZSRV_MSG0107:
Premature end of script headers: File name is E31RPP.PGM, referer:
http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bin/erros

The reason is that a second server instance was started in which the
initial program had not run so it was bound to fail. The second request
should have run in the same server instance as the first request.

Many thanks

Rob

I think this line is your problem.
ScriptAliasMatch ^/cgi-bin/E31RPP.PGM/(.*)
/QSYS.LIB/E310PRDOBJ.LIB/$1.PGM*
Change it to this:
ScriptAliasMatch ^/cgi-bin/E31RPP.PGM/(.*)
/QSYS.LIB/E310PRDOBJ.LIB/E31RPP.pgm
Your current version is telling it that if you get a url like
/cgi-bin/E31RPP.PGM/XXXX then call program E31PRODOBJ.LIB/XXXX

Jim,

Many thanks. I fully understand and all ideas are worth considering.

I am really desperate to try and solve this problem

Best wishes,

Rob

I only suggested it since it's an entirely different HTTP server and
it might behave very differently.

Jim,
Many thanks for this. I don't think that that is the problem as I use
exactly the same programs and program structure in 5250 mode and there
are no problems. In any event, if this were the problem, I think that
it would be reported differently.
Any other suggestions please?

A purely wild guess, but is the system trying to call that program
recursively? Where at V5R1 it was OK in that circumstance but now
it's protected? Maybe the new Apache is calling it recursively and
the old one was not. I would look in the history log to see if you
get any insight there. I'm sure you've already looked in the job
logs of the http server, and the http error logs.

Subject: [WEB400] Apache - persistent CGI problem: ZSRV_MSG0109

I have been running a persistent CGI application on a V5R1 system
for ten or more years using the IBM original HTTP server. I have now
transferred it to a V5R3 system and must run it under Apache. My
static pages work correctly but I am having problems with my dynamic
persistent CGI pages.
The first screen is displayed correctly with data retrieved from the
database, so I assume that there are no security problems, yet, when
I click on Enter to access the second screen, I get

ZSRV_MSG0109: /QSYS.LIB/E310PRDOBJ.LIB/081302393085252 is not a cgi
program: /QSYS.LIB/E310PRDOBJ.LIB/081302393085252, referer:
http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bin/erros

The URL in the error message above is wrong because it omits the
name of the CGI program, yet the correct URL, with the CGI program
name -

http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bn/E31RPP.PGM/081302393085252/ is displayed
on the error screen with the 404 Not Found error message and “The
script request is not valid. The script is not executable.“

The CGI program is E31RPP. This also was used for the first screen,
having been called by the initial program. It successfully called
the database handler that retrieved data for that first screen.

I am at a loss to understand how Apache puts the correct URL on the
error screen yet omits the name of the CGI program internally.I have
switched on CGIDEBUG. This records the valid first screen but
nothing further is added when I make the second request. The problem
is logged
in the error log.

I assume that my Apache configuration must be wrong, and, in
particular, the ScriptAliasMatch directive, but I am including the
whole configuration code below as there might be another problem.

I would really appreciate some help please. I have tried many
versions of my configuration but without success.

Many thanks
