Re: [users@httpd] cgi scripts not running

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Try replacing

<Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin/”>
with
<Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin”>

Thanks Wesley for your reply.

Unfortunately that not it, the script has the extension .cgi


I find it a bit odd that unless I put the entire path in my web page, the
script cannot be found.

 i.e. I have to put     ACTION=”/var/www/cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi” instead of
ACTION=”/mycgi.cgi” or ACTION=”/cgi-bin//mycgi.cgi”


what do you think?

This might be a shot in the dark, but in your first post you mention that
you are running Bash scripts. Did you name those scripts with a .sh
extension? If yes, you’ll need to include .sh in your ‘AddHandler’ line
after the .cgi.

Subject: [users@httpd] cgi scripts not running

I cannot get my cgi scripts to run; the script is displayed in the web
browser instead.
I presume the problem is that the cgi directory is not recognised as a
directory containing scripts.

I have checked  httpd.conf for:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/  “/var/www/cgi-bin/”

I do wonder if this line is being seen, unless I put the entire path in my
script the file cannot be found.


I have also tried adding  AddHandler cgi-script  .cgi

and checked that an Option directive is included:

<Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin/”>
Options ExecCGI

AllowOverride None
Allow from all
Order allow,deny

</Directory>


just to see if that would work, but it does not L


I’ve checked that the scripts are set as executable and are executable by
others (i.e. everyone)


I’ve run apachectl configtest gives Syntax ok


What I’m I doing wrong, any suggestion would be most greatly appreciated!


I am using Fedora Core 3, Apache 2.0


Many thanks


Stephen
