I"ve got a script I moved from one domain to another using tar to move everything in one file to the other directory (on the same server).

Now I get an error when browsing the web site. Also, the error_log shows "premature end of script headers" error. Usually this might be caused by uploading in binary mode. But this script was copied via the command line on the same server, ownership adjusted to the new account, etc. I can't figure out why it's doing this.

I would like to hire someone for an hour or maybe two to fix this. It should be fairly simple for a Perl guru/expert.
