I am using OpenBSD installed with perl, apache, firefox, gedit. I am trying to run foswiki on OpenBSD.

Whenever i try to run 

http://127.0.0.1/foswiki/bin/configure

it gives 500 internal server Error. When i checked Logs it revels following information.

[Wed Mar 19 08:24:33 2014] [error] (2)No such file or directory: exec of /htdocs/foswiki/bin/configure failed

[Wed Mar 19 08:24:33 2014] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: /htdocs/foswiki/bin/configure

Can someone guide on what is the issue and how do i resolve. ?

Maybe i'm wrong, but in the OpenBsd the apache is chrooted by default, and the foswiki configuration calling external programs. (and of course it want call perl - what is (imho) not allowed with a default OpenBSD apache config).

You can verify this, by copying the cgi-bin/printenv, from the default cgi-bin directory to the foswiki bin set the perm: chmod 755 /var/www/htdocs/foswiki/bin/printenv and point your browser to

http://127.0.0.1/foswiki/bin/printenv

And you should to get the same error.

For testing, if you want run your apache WITHOUT chroot, you can try add to

/etc/rc.conf

the next:

httpd_flags="-u"

and restart...
