Hi Before running from the command line you need to set the REQUEST_METHOD environment variable variables: $ export REQUEST_METHOD=GET Sounds like somethings wrong either the cgi-script or it's environment. Check you file-permissions first thing. Which version of nagios are you using?

When I run ./status.cfg at the bash I get this: [root@appserver3 sbin]# ./status.cgi getcgivars(): Unsupported REQUEST_METHOD -> '' I'm guessing you're trying to execute the CGI from a command line. So the permissions are right but maybe that 'error' can give someone a clue. I am really stuck on what that premature end of script error might be. Any advise would be greatly appriciated.
