Subject: apache selinx problem

I am having a perplexing apache problem, probably caused by incorrect 
permissions on files and/or directories.

I three web servers. One does not run on a server that uses SELinux. The
other 
two do. One of them executes scripts just fine. The other does not. This
is the 
error I get:

[Mon Nov 06 12:54:45 2006] [error] [client 10.1.5.58] (13)Permission
denied: 
exec of '/home/httpd/cgi-bin/aa_geocentric.pl' failed
[Mon Nov 06 12:54:45 2006] [error] [client 10.1.5.58] Premature end of
script 
headers: aa_geocentric.pl


The script is located in /home/httpd/cgi-bin. [The same script is
located on the 
other two servers, and works just fine.] This is what I get when looking
at 
permissions.

# ll -Z /home
drwxr-xr-x  apache   AA       system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_content_t
httpd

# ll -Z /home/httpd
drwxrwxr-x  apache   AA       system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t
cgi-bin

# ll -Z /home/httpd/aa_geocentric.pl
-rwxrwxr-x  apache   AA       system_u:object_r:httpd_sys_script_exec_t 
aa_geocentric.pl

"AA" is my department's user's group.

I can log into the server and run the script from the command line just
fine.

Html seems to render just fine. The problem is with cgi scripts. I've
tried UNIX 
shell scripts, and I get the same problem.

Any ideas what the problem might be?

TIA,
Bill Tangren
