[users@httpd] Forbidden error on .exe files in apache on RH 4.0
Hello All,
I just installed a RH 4.0 box with apache, and I am getting a
"Forbidden" error when trying to d/l .EXE files.
The log says:
Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: /path/path/file.exe
Any thoughts?
Saqib

because this directory doesn't have ExecCGI options,you can add it if needed.like,
<Directory "/the/path">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
</Directory>

Well, they are marked as such in your config file. You likely have an
AddHandler or AddType directive designating .exe files as cgi scripts.
You'll need to get rid of that if you want them downloaded without
processing.

[users@httpd] Apache 2 on Windows
Posted by Steffen <in...@apachelounge.com>.
Just to let you know.
The Apache Lounge is pulled down, because we have some (legal) issues.
See http://www.apachelounge.com/
Sorry that we have to leave a lot of Windows users in the dark.
Hopefully we can come back. I keep you informed.

In httpd.conf, you have an Options directive applying to that path (or
a parent directory) that does not include the ExecCGI option.
