You said you renamed the two domains – how did you go about doing that?
If you didn’t do that from within Virtualmin, using “Server Configuration -> Move Virtual Server”, Virtualmin may be confused at the moment, not knowing those names have been changed.

Hi
Yes I am using Centos 5.3
The script is set to 755 as they suggested.
Can you describe the problem you’re having, again? What are the symptoms?
Also, as Joe had mentioned above – if you log into your server over SSH, and run the script from the command line, does that work? Do you get some form of output?
-Eric
When I try run the cgi on the site I just get a blank screen.
I ran it from ssh and got alot of html code,
which when I cut and pasted in to my wysiwyg editor showed me a form with lots of input fields etc,
which makes sense as this is an installation scrip
You tried to access the address http://www.saweb.biz/cgi-bin/install.cgi, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the Web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.
Firefox just gives a blank page,
but if I spell it wrong (installh.cgi instead of install.cgi)
then it says page cant be found.
I know it seems like we’re going in circles here…that’s because we are. I’ve never seen a situation where the script actually worked when run from the command line, the permissions and ownership were correct, and there were no errors in either log, but the script doesn’t run. It just doesn’t happen. We’ve gotta have some kind of error somewhere.
Yeah, whenever I go to the site listed above – while Firefox does indeed show a blank page, looking at the headers, Apache is seeing "Internal Server Error".
So there should be an error in the logs – I’d look in both the logs for that particular Virtual Server (in /home/USERNAME/logs/error_log), the system logs (in /var/log/apache2/error_log), and suexec (/var/log/apache2/suexec.log).

Here is the last few lines of the /var/log/virtualmin/saweb.biz_error_log
The last entry was me just before I went to the log

Not sure if this helps, but there is no such directory /var/log/apache2/ .
I did find this log. /var/log/httpd/error_log
If you look at the last few lines its looking at /var/www/html/
as far as I know the saweb domain is set to, /home/saweb/public_html
That is what the default server is set to, must I make that the same as the saweb one as that is supposed to be the servers domain name.
I noticed that the if I access the server via IP it does go to saweb domain.

I wanted to see suexec_log. Which is referenced by your error_log. The system-wide error_log is only providing details about startup, and other stuff…and there are obviously no entries at “Wed Jun 03 11:16:07 2009”, so it has no relation to the problem we’re talking about. What appears in suexec_log at that time for that request?
I just remembered that the saweb was restored from an old Virtualmin backup from my old server,
which was a vps system with saweb as the primary domain,
where as this is a dedicated server with saweb as the primary domain.
(By primary domain I mean if you type in the ip that is the domain that shows).
Both systems had other virtual domains also on them)
[2009-06-03 12:10:16]: target uid/gid (500/501) mismatch with directory (500/501) or program (0/0)
This is the problem. Though I don’t understand it, because the files you showed us earlier are not the files you’re trying to run now. index.cgi and install.cgi don’t exist in the file list you showed us earlier…and this suexec_log error tells me they are owned by root (0/0), which is never expected to work.
