Hi,

I'm trying to set up a new copy of Hiawatha on a new server using a known working config from another server but I'm having some issues. The original server is running version 10.0 and runs as expected.
The new server is running version 10.5 but when I add UseLocalConfig = yes to either the default site or the virtualhost section I end up getting an internal server error and I'm not entirely sure why. The server starts OK when using /etc/init.d/hiawatha start/restart.

I'm using as close to the default config file as possible to eliminate potential causes.

All files and directories in the website root are in the www-data group.

The config file I'm using is as such:

# Hiawatha main configuration file
#

# VARIABLES
# With 'set', you can declare a variable. Make sure the name of the
# variable doesn't conflict with any of the configuration options.
# The variables are case-sensitive and cannot be redeclared.
#
#set LOCALHOST = 127.0.0.0/8


# GENERAL SETTINGS
#
ServerId = www-data
ConnectionsTotal = 1000
ConnectionsPerIP = 25
SystemLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/system.log
GarbageLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/garbage.log


# BINDING SETTINGS
# A binding is where a client can connect to.
#
Binding {
	Port = 80
}
#
#Binding {
#	Port = 443
#	TLScertFile = tls/hiawatha.pem
#	Interface = 127.0.0.1
#	MaxRequestSize = 2048
#	TimeForRequest = 30
#}


# BANNING SETTINGS
# Deny service to clients who misbehave.

#BanOnMaxReqSize = 300
#KickOnBan = yes
#RebanDuringBan = yes


# COMMON GATEWAY INTERFACE (CGI) SETTINGS
# These settings can be used to run CGI applications.

# DIRECTORY SETTINGS
# You can specify some settings per directory.

#
#Directory {

# DEFAULT WEBSITE
# It is wise to use your IP address as the hostname of the default website
# and give it a blank webpage. By doing so, automated webscanners won't find
# your possible vulnerable website.
#
Hostname = 127.0.0.1
WebsiteRoot = /home/pi/www
StartFile = index.html
#UseFastcgi = PHP7
AccessLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/access.log

# VIRTUAL HOSTS
# Use a VirtualHost section for each website you want to host.
#
#VirtualHost {
#	Hostname = www.my-domain.com
#	WebsiteRoot = /var/www/my-domain/public
#	AccessLogfile = /var/www/my-domain/log/access.log
#	ErrorLogfile = /var/www/my-domain/log/error.log

#}

VirtualHost {
	Hostname = 192.168.1.105
	WebsiteRoot = /home/pi/www
	StartFile = index.php
	AccessLogfile = /var/log/hiawatha/access.log

	TimeForCGI = 5
	UseFastCGI = PHP7
	Alias = /phpmyadmin:/usr/share/phpmyadmin
	UseLocalConfig = yes
}

Thanks in advance.
