Dear members --
i'm not sure if this is the right forum for this or not. i'm trying to
set up a small program called Data
Mine which essentially does a local search on text documents and returns
a two page web type output (see here for example
http://jonathanscorner.com/etc/datamine/datamine.html) and am having
problems with i don't know what.
The program's author suggested i ask a well-crafted question, but since i don't know what the problem is to begin with, this is difficult, however he said that it appeared that my "installation was not configured to run " and that i should ask "how to configure a working cgi-bin directory in /var/www/cgi-bin".
My Apache version looks like 2.0.54 under Linux distro is Mandriva 2006.
He told me to include the the conf file below>
httpd2.conf

### Global Configuration
###
# We now support multiple apache configurations on the same server. In
# common.conf, we put all directives that are common to all implementations
# (httpd, httpd-perl, etc.)
# For Apache2 we load all conf files in conf.d
Include /etc/httpd/conf.d/*.conf
Include conf/commonhttpd.conf
###
### IP Address/Port and Proxied configuration section
###
# The APACHEPROXIED setting can be set in /etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd if you
# are using a proxy or accelerator, like the Apache-SGI or khttpd, so that
# the fast web server serves static content while Apache handles the
# cgi or php files
#BindAddress *
<IfDefine APACHEPROXIED>
Listen 8080
</IfDefine>
<IfDefine !APACHEPROXIED>
Listen 80
</IfDefine>
# Likewise, we can set apache as the server by default and send perl
# requests via ProxyPass to apache-mod_perl. It increases performance
# since the perl interpreter is only used for perl and the standard apache
# does all the html and image files, with a smaller footprint.
#
# If you install apache and apache-mod_perl, this is the default config.
# If you don't want two web servers to use perl, uninstall apache, and
# apache-mod_perl will not be proxied.
<IfDefine PERLPROXIED>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^proxy:.* - [F]
RewriteRule ^(.*\/perl\/.*)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}:8200$1 [P]

</IfModule>

### Log configuration Section
###
<IfModule mod_log_config.c>
#Single logfile with access, agent and referer information
#This is the default, if vlogs are not defined for the main server
CustomLog logs/access_log combined env=!VLOG
#If VLOG is defined in conf/vhosts/Vhost.conf, we use this entry
CustomLog "|/usr/sbin/advxsplitlogfile" vhost env=VLOG
</IfModule>
###
### Virtual Hosts
###
# We include different templates for Virtual Hosting. Have a look in the
# vhosts directory and modify to suit your needs.
Include conf/vhosts/Vhosts.conf
#Include conf/vhosts/DynamicVhosts.conf
#Include conf/vhosts/VirtualHomePages.conf

Is this enough info to get us started? My knowledge of Linux is
about at a 1.0 level (i try to do as much as possible through KDE and
Mandrake Control Center), and i didn't even know that i would have to
install an Apache(server?) to run the program, much less how to install
it. i think i got it installed by serendipity. Any help would be
appreciated!
Have a nice day! :-) --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
