Apache Virtual Hosting
Hi All,
I am having a little bit of trouble with thr configuration of Virtual Hosts
and cgi-bin on my current Server.
It has 3 independent websites running from the same box which are working
fine. I have given each there own cgi-bin (for formmail.pl).
What i want to do is to seperate totally the scripts in the cgi-bin so they
can be independently modified to suit the user. Currently the cgi-bin
scripts are being read from /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin from all 3 sites and
not from there own cgi-bin,s. I have tried adding the alias path to each
site which kinda works but an error message "The requested method POST is
not allowed for the URL /cgi-bin/formmail.pl." The permissions are set
correctly and the scripts as above.
Can anyone kindly advise what i have to do in the httpd.conf file to fix
this?
This is what i already have:
<VirtualHost 192.168.10.2>
DocumentRoot /www/joeblogs/htdocs
ServerName www.joeblogs.com.au
Alias /cgi-bin /www/joeblogs/cgi-bin
</VirtualHosts>
Regards,
Greg

Thankyou very much for your kind help Joshua and Andrew. By adding the
ScriptAlias line to the httpd.conf file all is now working well.
Regards,
Greg

Hmmm... I recommend you find another source for cgi scripts. That one is
notoriously buggy and a huge security problem.
http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/ might be a good place to start, although I
haven't tried them myself.
> Alias /cgi-bin /www/joeblogs/cgi-bin
Just make that a ScriptAlias rather than an Alias and it should work.
