I have the exact same code in two locations. http://tools.wmflabs.org/betacommand-dev/refs/article_count.py?user=Maile66 and http://tools.wmflabs.org/betacommand-dev/cgi-bin/article_count.py?user=Maile66 I try to keep all my executing code in one place cgi-bin. This works perfectly in the toolserver but on labs the exact same code wont work in one place while it will in another.
To clarify, are there symlinks involved?
yes
By default, our current setup is very paranoid about symlinks; and will only follow them under very restricted circumstances (the owner of both ends match, the directory is in the document root, the non-writeability of directories) This is necessary for security, but could be tuned if needed. Also, you can set FollowSymlinks in .htaccess that has looser standards.
The issue is I have other scripts that are in the same location and use the same symlinks and work fine. The odd thing about this is that the script now works (I have changed nothing between then and now)
that... is troubling. Do you have time windows so I can go take a detailed look at the logs?

Betacommand, is this still happening for you?
I havent posted any new cgi scripts recently and I have moved to the newweb so I have no clue.
