RE: [users@httpd] .cgi/apache problems: SOLVED (Almost)
I got part of it running, the main page. But when I try to access a
category I get Error 403 - Forbidden. Here's a snippet of the log file:
[Wed Apr 09 22:12:04 2003] [error] [client 10.10.0.2] Options ExecCGI is
off in this directory:
/home/www.palmettoshopper.com/html/classifieds/classifieds.cgi
I don't know if this is the problem, but I have just about every files
set to 775 or 777, so I thought it must be in the virtual host
statement.
<Directory "/home/www.palmettoshopper.com/html/cgi-bin/classifieds/">
Options +ExecCGI
</Directory>
I have played with different variations of the path but still can't get
it to work.
Any suggestions?
TIA

This is strange. It is now working!! This time I'm sure.
What's strange is that I was restarting apache using: service httpd
restart
But, I re-booted and now, everything works!
Would that be a 'bug' in RedHat?
Again, _THANKS_ for your help!!!

I noticed that too. If I change it to match, the error changes.
Sometimes it will be page not found. I don't get it.
The path to classifies.cgi is:
/home/www.palmettoshopper.com/html/cgi-bin/classifieds/classifieds.cgi
This is that part of my httpd.conf for the virtual host,
www.palmettoshopper.com:
DocumentRoot /home/www.palmettoshopper.com/html/
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/www.palmettoshopper.com/html/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/home/www.palmettoshopper.com/html/cgi-bin/">
Options +ExecCGI
</Directory>
There are sub-directories under /classifieds/ which have .pl files that
are used by classifieds.cgi. Do I need to add some kind of statement
for those sub-directories?
I really appreciate your helping me!!

Notice those two paths don't match. One has a "cgi-bin" and the other
doesn't. I suspect that your ScriptAlias is not set correctly, and
therefore Apache is looking in the wrong place for the script. This is
strange, since it was finding the script before. Have you changed things
in httpd.conf?
