Apache: Cant't run my own CGI-Scripts

Apache: Cant't run my own CGI-Scripts

Post by Christoph Klünte » Fri, 26 Feb 1999 04:00:00



Im running Apache 1.3 on a standalone Computer.
I can't run my cgi-scripts, because Apache says it's forbidden.
I can run scripts in Apaches own /http/cgi-bin directory, and I wrote
the same Directives for my own /cgi Directory in srm.conf and
access.conf but it doesn't work,
wht is wrong ????????
Thanx Christoph

Apache: Cant't run my own CGI-Scripts

I believe you need to CHMOD 755 the cgi script you are trying to run.
Effectivly what this does is allow outside users to "execute" your cgi
script. (the rights look like this rwxr-xr-x)
Hope this helps, this might be the first time I've actually helped
somebody rather than ask for help. ;)

1. apache: give /home/mailman/cgi-bin permissions to run cgi-scripts.

Hey ho,
I try to install mailman on my server.
Now I have to give /home/mailman/cgi-bin permissions to run cgi-scripts.
How can I do this?
In the documentation of mailman s.th. like
Exec          /mailman/*      $prefix/cgi-bin/*
or
ScriptAlias   /mailman/       $prefix/cgi-bin/

is shown. Which one is right, or none?

Bye
 Jonas
