[users@httpd] Using an Alias as second argument to Action

[nocturnal <nocturnal@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

I'm using Action on a handler created by AddHandler and it works just 
fine but Action takes a virtual path as second argument so the file must 
be in the web root directory for the vhost. I'd like to use a predefined 
Alias pointing to a global place in the file system for the Action. This 
is an example of what i'm doing right now.

<VirtualHost ip:port>
<Directory /web/root>
AddHandler php-v4 .php
Action php-v4 /cgi-bin/program.cgi
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

This works but requires us to put the binary executable file in each web 
root directory for each vhost. This is what we want to do but it 
produces 500 errors.

Alias /cgi-bin /usr/home/cgi-bin
<VirtualHost ip:port>
<Directory /web/root>
AddHandler php-v4 .php
Action php-v4 /cgi-bin/program.cgi
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

I'm using Apache HTTPD 2.2.0 for all of this.
