    After a complete re-install of RH to v9.0 I can't get even the simplest
    of perl scripts to work in Apache. If I set the bang to -w the script
    will work but if it is not set then then I get this:
    --------------------------------
    Server error!
    The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your
    request.
    Error message:
    Premature end of script headers: hello.cgi
    If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster
    Error 500

    Apache/2.0.40 (Red Hat Linux)
    ---------------------------------

    The script in question is this:
    --------------------------------
    #!/usr/bin/perl
    #
    print <<EOP;
    Content-type: text/html

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
    <html>
    <head>
            <title>Hello World!</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <p>Hello World!</p>
    </body>
    </html>
    EOP
    --------------------------------

    Can't get any simpler than that. So anyone know what's wrong? This is
    the first time I"ve used Apache 2.0 so I'm not sure if this is an Apache
    or a Perl issue.

    Here is the mod_perl info from the server:
