We must use perl -w in the top line to get the calendar.pl to run.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
or
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

It generates tons of errors so the host is asking us to fix the problem. We cannot find a solution.

They path to perl is the first one per the host.

Please help.

Here is some output of the logs:

** We must use perl -w in the top line to get the calendar.pl to run. **

Why is that??

The -w switch just tells Perl to report warnings. That is mainly used just when testing scripts (... which you're unsure work properly).

** It generates tons of errors so the host is asking us to fix the problem. **

Most of those are not "errors" just warnings.

** Here is some output of the logs:
2 06:46:25 host named[14742]: client 66.245.126.220#3622: updating zone 'summitchurch.org/IN': update failed: 'RRset exists (value dependent)' prerequisite not satisfied (NXRRSET)
Mar 2 06:51:08 host named[14742]: client 66.245.126.220#3499: updating zone 'summitchurch.org/IN': update failed: 'RRset exists (value dependent)' prerequisite not satisfied (NXRRSET) **

I don't know what those are but I do not believe they have anything to do with Calendarscript. The rest are just warnings and do not affect the operation of the script.

Turn the Perl warnings off (ie. remove the -w from the shebang).

the script will not run without the -w

when I remove it I get

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@summitchurch.org and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.summitchurch.org  Port 80

with the -w it works but sends errors to the log files.

** with the -w it works but sends errors to the log files. **

As I said, those are warnings, not errors.

If your host (for whatever reason) won't allow you to run Perl scripts without the -w, I'm afraid you will probably not be able to use this or a lot of other ready made CGI scripts.

Sorry.
