Hi there, I've been trying to get Euphoria working on a webserver for simply ages now. I thought I'd tried everything and just about given up due to lack of expterise.. I kept getting the dreaded 500 Internal Server error message. I'm pleased to report its all going well now, fine and dandy. For anyone who has been in the same position as me, I found out the problem was having "write" file permissions for the file (I naively thought changing the file permissions to 755 would make it more likely to execute) -- this was in fact exactly the source of the problem. Many servers are set up to consider 755 *too * much access for a remote user. And I've traced that to 3 different webservers now. They don't like executing 3rd party programs which allow the write bit set in permissions in case that program has a bug which can be exploited.. etc etc. I am so god damn happy I'm ready to throw PHP out the window!!!! Cheers
