gnats2w doesn't use gnatsd, so this is not the problem.  More likely, it
could be something with your Web server configuration or net filtering.
Look at your Web server error log.

BTW, I'd suggest you to try out gnats-3.999 from Debian testing,
together with Gnatsweb (please note Gnatsweb *does* use gnatsd).  Both
GNATS 3.113 and gnats2w are no longer maintained now.
