When I try to change the theme in the admin panel I get the following error:

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

Other areas in the admin do not work as well.

The site was working fine for a couple months.

pp vers. 1.7.1

Please contact your hoster, they should be able to figure it out. It has nothing todo with Pixelpost.

Thanks -
I have spoken to my hosting service and they did not have an answer. i was hoping someone may have had a similar experience so I could give my host some insight into the issue.

thanks again

Who is your hosting company?

It looks like they are running PHP as CGI, which is quite slow.
If you PM me your domain and information, I can look at it for you and at least tell you what is going on?

I still have no resolution to my problem. My hosting service has no idea what may be causing it. I think it has to do with an IIS update on the windows server?

Has anyone experienced this?
Sorry for posting here but I don't know what else to do.

thanks

I have not been able to find a solution to this problem.
So I guess I can't use pixel post on this server?

TKO - Does your webhost offer accounts on a Linux server? If so, I'd ask them to switch you from a Windows server to a Linux server.

Yes, I would highly recommend using linux as from our experience, php runs allot better on it!
