Also...that content-type at the start looks "odd"

I did check permissions, the directory is getting created correctly,
just nothing going inside of it, after running this:

It seems to have a trailing "--bbrep-29231-1199369692", which is the
directory name.

Any ideas on what to look for?  Nothing I can see in any of the logs

but it
has the problem when it try to generate it on the web, it appears to
be able
to generate it via our daily script, just not via the web anymore.

This smells like a permissions problem to me. Check that the webserver
userid/group has write permissions to the www/rep/ directory.

If that doesn't help, you can login/su so you have the user/group-ID of
your webserver, and then run the CGI by hand like this:

REQUEST_METHOD=GET \
SCRIPT_NAME=bb-rep.sh \
QUERY_STRING="start-mon=Jan&start-day=1&start-yr=2008&end-mon=1&end-day=
3&end-yr=2008&style=crit" \
~hobbit/cgi-bin/bb-rep.sh
