RE: [users@httpd] Help needed

Owen,

I figured out that if I use "Alias" instead of "ScriptAlias" for the cgi-bin directory that I want to browse, it works (I can browse it), but I lose link to my .cgi files and having "ScriptAlias" for same directory, all my .cgi files work, but directory browsing stops.

How I can have both options in just one module (Alias or ScriptAlias)?

Thanks,
Osvaldo

Do you mean simply that you can't browse a normal filelist of plain files (ie, NOT cgi programs)? If so, look at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options. You need,

	Options Indexes

at least..

I suspect you're trying to browse a CGI directory by using its ScriptAlias.. Eg:

DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/html
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /usr/local/apache/html/subdir/cgi-bin 

Then if you try to browse http://server/cgi-bin, that won't work.. You need to give the filesystem path relative to the docroot, ie, http://server/subdir/cgi-bin [NB: I moved your CGI-bin to make it clearer - you can't browse it where you have it because it's not under the docroot]

BTW, even when you browse it, you can't execute the programs by clickking on them - that will only list them.

Rgds,
Owen Boyle
