    So Im setting up an Imageboard and the script is written in Perl, so I set everything up (btw this imageboard doesnt need a SQL based Database or anything) and I set the appropriate permissions and stuff but I get this error:

    Software error:
    Couldn't write to file "index.html" at wakautils.pl line 944.
    For help, please send mail to the webmaster, giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

    Any ideas on how to fix this. The Hash bang is perfect too.

    Looks distinctly like a permissions problem. Can you change line 944 from
    open FILE,">$file" or die "Couldn't write to file \"$file\"";
    

    to
    open FILE,">$file" or die "Couldn't write to file \"$file\" : $!";
    

    And post the permissions of 'index.html' too...
