Oh what the heck, another CGI question

Andre,
Thanks for the quick response. The CGI tutorial was indeed excellent. It
does turn out BSD has a 2.2.1 version of the engine going.
One thing my ISP noted is that there were some odd problems with the
libraries used when the BSD version was compiled. This is not "my thing"
but I am putting it out there so folks will know. Otherwise you can do
everything right and end up hitting your head against 500 errors. They
were nice enough to upload libs for backwards compatibility to the
server so now it is working. Here is the note:
<< -------------------------
The problem is your engine was compiled for FreeBSD 4, but you're on
FreeBSD 5.
su-2.05b$ ./revolution
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libstdc++.so.3" not found,
required by "revolution"
su-2.05b$ locate libstdc
/usr/lib/libstdc++.a
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so
/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.4
If revolution was compiled to use libstdc++.so instead of
libstdc++.so.3, then it should be more portable between FreeBSD
versions. I wouldn't recommend compiling against libstdc++.so.4 either
because if you ever move your website to a newer server, or if the
server is ever upgraded, it will definitely break.
All that said, I installed some downward compatibility libraries, so the
script runs now.
