I am running Apache 2.0.54 on Fedora (2.6.12-1.1398_FC4) and just installed Big Sister. I created a ScriptAlias directory called /bigsis/cgi/ with exactly the same options as the existing cgi-bin directory, but when I place a perl script in that directory it will not run. The errors in the httpd error log show: Permission denied: exec of '/blahblahblah' failed Premature end of script headers: blahblahblah I can su to apache and run the script fine, and if I put the script into the cgi-bin directory it runs fine. I added the Options ExecCGI, disabled suexec and even tried making cgi-bin a symlink to bigsis/cgi, but it still doesn't work. Perm's on the script are 755. I searched the archives and googled for a solution and tried just about everything I found, but cannot resolve the issue. Thanks in advance for any help. >From httpd.conf: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/" ScriptAlias /bigsis/cgi/ "/var/www/cgi/" <Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> <Directory "/var/www/cgi"> AllowOverride None Options None ## I have tried ExecCGI as well Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> Here is the script: #!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n"; print "<html><body><h1>Hello</h1></body></html>\n"; "The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential, proprietary, and/or privileged material.
