title: Basic python script giving Internal Server Error
body: <p>I'm using hostgator and they swear that python is supported, but I've yet to see one working python script. I've tried several scripts, my latest one is the one they give on their website:</p>
  
  <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/python
  print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
  print "&lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;";
  print "&lt;title&gt;CGI Test&lt;/title&gt;";
  print "&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body&gt;";
  print "&lt;p&gt;Test page using Python&lt;/p&gt;";
  print "&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;";
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm getting an Internal Server Error:
  <a href="http://elkuzu.com/cgi-bin/test.py" rel="nofollow">http://elkuzu.com/cgi-bin/test.py</a></p>
  
  <p>The file has 755 permissions, so does the folder cgi-bin. They refused to help me with what they call "coding" problems... but with all that I've tried and received nothing but Internal Server Errors, I'm thinking the problem is with them. Anyone know what could be wrong?</p>

  <p>I've talked with my host (hostgator) and they've turned it into a ticket, which makes me think that something is up on their end.</p>
