The apache error to the log file is like this: [Wed Jul 24 21:30:32 1996] access to /usr/local/www/data/whatever.cgi failed for cnc000143.concentric.net, reason: couldn't spawn child process and the error the user receives back from apache is the generic "Server error: a configuration problem exists; contact the administrator, etc.." I'd be surprised if it was a bad SIMM, but of course anything can happen... wouldn't there be other signs? Thanks, Pierre
