Premature end of script headers: in basic python script

Hi guys I am trying to follow http://elvenware.com/charlie/development/web/Python/Xampp.html to set up python with xampp . I am running xammp usb lite 1.77

following the directions here and on Python & XAMPP on Windows: how to?,

I have created

#!F:/Python27/python

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
print "<html><head><title>Hello World from Python</title></head><body>Hello World from a Python CGI Script</body></html>

when I try to run it after placing it in the cgi-bin folder and running it like htp://localhost/cgi-bin/test.py I get:

Premature end of script headers: test.py

BTW an included htp://localhost/cgi-bin/cgi.cgi script works!!

Any idea what I can do to fix this?

Thank you in advance,

Bill

I had the same problem with xampp.

The problem is in the httpd.conf. With xampp apache will be installed with another httpd.conf like the standalone install of apache.

Check your settings in the httpd.conf and change it.

There is no ending " on line 2 - unless it's a mistake in copy/pasting
