internal server error

[Fryman]

I am seeing a 500 internal server eror page when visiting my site. I checked my error log and this is what is has:

[Sat Mar 26 18:24:10 2005] [error] (13)Permission denied: exec of /home/xyz/public_html/index.html failed

[Sat Mar 26 18:24:10 2005] [error] [client 200.12.123.456] Premature end of script headers: /home/xyz/public_html/index.html

Any idea of what can be wrong? It is also happening to a few other sites on my server and I get the same on my error log

Is your site set up to handle all or most page requests using a script?

If so, that script is probably failing. "Premature end of script headers" seems to be the most common error message seen for script failures -- So common, in fact, that it is practically a default "You goofed" error message -- Not very informative.
