[OpenLayers-Users] Can't get the WFS running

[andreia farrér]

Alex,
many thanks for pointing me at the right direction!
But unfortunately I'm stuck again as I'm a complete beginner concerning this
"proxy-stuff".

I saved the proxy.cgi-file into my .../apache/cgi-bin folder and added '
http://localhost' to the allowedHosts-array. Also I added the following line
to my html-file:

>  OpenLayers.ProxyHost = "/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi?url=";
>
> But if I go to http://localhost/cgi-bin/proxy.cgi I'm getting the
following error message:

> Internal Server Error

What have I done wrong?

Btw, the server log looks like this (which looks cryptic to me):

> [Tue Aug 10 14:11:48 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] C:/##BTH10##/5.

Do you know how to fix this?
Cheers
