I'm at my wits end. This same configuration works fine on our old apache 2.2. I have read through the documentation for 2.4 and searched far and wide but cannot seem to solve this. I'm running out of the box apache that came with centos 7. selinux is disabled Main virtual host setting in the main httpd.conf is: <VirtualHost 129.119.119.207:80> ServerAdmin enoc@xxxxxxxxxxxx DocumentRoot "/var/www/html" ServerName neodev.seas.smu.edu DirectoryIndex index.php index.shtml index.html index.htm <Directory "/var/www/html"> Options Includes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride All Require all granted </Directory> ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/" <Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options ExecCGI Require all granted </Directory> ErrorLog logs/neodev-seas-smu-edu-error_log CustomLog logs/neodev-seas-smu-edu-access_log combined </VirtualHost> My userdir.conf looks like this: <IfModule mod_userdir.c> # # UserDir is disabled by default since it can confirm the presence # of a username on the system (depending on home directory # permissions). # UserDir disabled root # # To enable requests to /~user/ to serve the user's public_html # directory, remove the "UserDir disabled" line above, and uncomment # the following line instead: # UserDir public_html </IfModule> # # Control access to UserDir directories. The following is an example # for a site where these directories are restricted to read-only. # <Directory "/*/public_html/cgi-bin"> Options Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec ExecCGI AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory> Scripts placed in /var/www/cgi-bin work, scripts placed in an user directory/cgi-bin do not. The apache logs says this: Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: /users4/enoc/tuckerd/public_html/cgi-bin/doug.py The directory is 755. I don't know how more to enable with than with the ExecCGI directive in Options. I did try putting the + before each directive but the result was the same. Can anyone please shed some light on what I'm missing? Again this exact same configuration (with the exception of the Require all granted being the old style Allow,deny stuff) works just fine on our apache 2.2. -- Sincerely, Doug Tucker --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
