I've compiled and installed mapserver on Suse 10.0 and mapserv file is 
on cgi-bin directory. When I try to run the scripts I get a 500 internal 
error message.

I can read on this page 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/compiling_on_unix

/500 Internal server error: This is a fairly generic error message. All 
it basically tells you is that the web server was unsuccessful in 
running the program. You will have to consult the web server's error log 
to find out more, and may need to enlist the help of your 
webmaster/system administrator/

Mapserver creates a 0 bytes image in temp directory, and returns 500 
error, so I think Apache is running program but mapserver fails.

mapserv -v returns:
MapServer version 4.8.4 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=WBMP 
OUTPUT=SVG SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER 
SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE

Is there any way to check mapserv script is compiled ok? Should I check 
other things? 

Thanks for your help
