mistwang,
I'm doing my testing on a Redhat 9 system. I've tried copying the perl libs from the default RH install, same problem.

Currently I'm testing with a version I compiled and installed (Perl 5.8.7). For the build, I compiled and installed Perl under /usr/local/. Once complete I copied the libs from /usr/local/perl into the chroot /chroot/usr/local/perl. I also moved all the binaries into there respective location as well.

I tested perl under the chroot using "chroot /chroot perl -V" and by running a couple simple scripts under the chroot as well. Everything seems fine and working.

I then modified the lsperld.fpl shebang to use #!/usr/local/bin/perl instead of #!/usr/bin/perl. However I still get the 503 error.

I've been able to run Perl scripts under CGI in the chroot'd environment without any problems via LSWS but creating a context definition. I even tried running a very simple Perl script that uses FCGI and it runs fine under CGI (see example) using LSWS.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w 

use FCGI;
while(FCGI::accept() >= 0) {
    print("Content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n",
          "<title>FastCGI Hello! &#40;Perl&#41;</title>\n",
          "<h1>FastCGI Hello! &#40;Perl&#41;</h1>\n"&#41;;
&#125;

I might try a clean install from scratch this weekend if I can't get it working on my test box. I'm sure it's just a missing library somewhere as you suggested. The problem is finding it. I didn't think chrooting a webserver was this much work, however in the end it'll be worth it from a security standpoint. Thanks again for your continued assistance.
