[afnog] Openwebmail on FC 5 - Anything Special ?

[Hosea Phiri]

                Hie All,

I have just installed Fedora core 5. And I have configured OpenWebmail which I always use.  I have done it before on FC 2 and FC 4 without any problems.
   I normally follow the following steps:
a. Install required packages:
CGI.pm, MIME-Base64, libnet-1.19, Text-Iconv
b. Install  OpenWebmail as follows:

  1. cd /var/www
   tar -zxvBpf openwebmail-X.XX.tar.gz
   mv data/openwebmail html/
   rmdir data

2. cd /var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/etc

   modify auth_unix.conf from defaults/auth_unix.conf
   a. set passwdfile_encrypted to '/etc/shadow'
   b  set passwdmkdb           to 'none'

   modify openwebmail.conf
   a. set mailspooldir to '/var/spool/mail'
   b. set ow_htmldir   to '/var/www/html/openwebmail'
      set ow_cgidir    to '/var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail'
   c. set spellcheck   to '/usr/bin/ispell -a -S -w "-" -d @@@DICTIONARY@@@ -p @@@PDICNAME@@@'
   
3. add
   /var/log/openwebmail.log {
       postrotate
           /usr/bin/killall -HUP syslogd
       endscript
   }
   to /etc/logrotate.d/syslog to enable logrotate on openwebmail.log

4. execute /var/www/cgi-bin/openwebmail/openwebmail-tool.pl --init 

(To initialise Webmail)
 
After step 4 I access the web interface with url:
http://<my-ip-address>/cgi-bin/openwebmail/openwebmail.pl  I then get the following error message:
 Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
 Please contact the server administrator, root@<mydomain> and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
 More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
 Additionally, a 500 Internal Server Error error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
 
---------------------------------
   httpd is running fine and I can access the server's main site using 
http://<my-ip-address> . However once I try to access webmail the above error pops up and httpd error_log complains as follows:
-----------------------------------
  [Thu Aug 05 12:36:39 2006] [error] [client <client-IP>] Premature end of script headers: openwebmail.pl
--------------------------------------

 I do not get such complaint on FC 4, Is there anything special with FC 5 with respect to Open Webmail WHICH IDO NOT KNOW?
