Another silly thought.......when you make an
alteration in the config file do you restart Apache?
Hello Mark. Tried replacing
<Directory
“/var/www/cgi-bin/”> with <Directory
“/var/www/cgi-bin”> Looking thro the Apache docs it
should be <Directory
“/var/www/cgi-bin”> And
The +ExecCGI as far as I can tell is
not needed as there is only one option within <Directory
“/var/www/cgi-bin”> so it’s the most specific one. But I did try it
anyway! I’ve been trying various things
; I can http://localhost/cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi
and see the script run correctly However, viewing the html file that
invokes the script named by ACTION gives the error message The file /cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi cannot be
found The complete line is <FORM METHOD=POST ACTION=""> I’ve tried
putting a / infront of the cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi by the way
Document_root=/var/www/html Cgi-bin
=/var/www/cgi-bin Shebang line is ok, the script works
from command line Thanks for you help, I’ll
happily try any other suggestions Stephen -----Original Message----- Allso is <Directory
“/var/www/cgi-bin/”> Options ExecCGI the same as <Directory
“/var/www/cgi-bin”> Options +ExecCGI 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="" instead of ACTION="" or ACTION=""> what do you think? Stephen From: Craft, Wesley

running 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. Wesley -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Elmer

'users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx' 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
