Premature end of script headers: hgweb.cgi

[Nguyen Manh Cuong]

Hello Mercurial developers and users,

I am a fairly newbie to Mercurial and are trying to implement it for our FOSS project. I have successful installed Mercurial into our Ubuntu-powered server and do can run Mercurial from the command line. I then setup a test repository and try to bring it to the Mercurial's web interface.

The "hg serve" method is working without problem but I don't like the trailing 8000 port number so I decide to use the CGI method for making web interface for our future repository. At this time, problem occurred as you can see at:

http://repo.fusus.org/cgi-bin/hgweb.cgi

I then from within the cgi-bin directory execute:

./hgweb.cgi > ../httpdocs/results.html

As you can see at:

http://repo.fusus.org/results.html

the HTTP header has not been sent to browser the normal way but has been echoed along with the HTML code.

Does anybody here experience this problem before? Please help me to solve this out.

Thank you very much for your support,
