CGI Error - not returning a complete set of HTTP headers

When I try to load the default page I get the following error message and nothing else:

CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers.

I can login to the admin section just fine however. The diagnostics pre-flight check shows: All checks passed! I’m not really sure where to start looking to fix this. It’s installed on IIS.

Please help! Let me know what other information I can provide in order to help diagnose the problem. Thanks!

Re: CGI Error - not returning a complete set of HTTP headers

It turns out that the problem was the fact that I had some PHP code in my templates, and the version of PHP on the server was older than the version of PHP that I was developing for. So when it tried to process the PHP embedded within my textpattern template it just barfed due to unknown php functions.
