This is because the ScriptAlias directive is telling apache that the directory contains scripts. So apache never goes near the directory listing mechanisms and so never sees any DirectoryIndex... Before plunging into mod-rewrite, you might like to see if a simpler solution (at the cost of a new directory) would work for you; - make "webcal" a plain directory (ie, not ScriptAlias) - make a new dummy directory containing the program and ScritpAlias this - set the DirectoryIndex of webcal to point to the program in the dummy dir Eg, ScriptAlias /dummy-cgi /path/to/dummy-cgi <Directory /path/to/webcal> DirectoryIndex /dummy-cgi/webcal.pl </Directory> ScriptAlias /dummy-cgi /path/to/dummy-cgi now http://some.site/webcal/ will go into the /path/to/webcal directory, find the DirectoryIndex and execute a request for /dummy-cgi/webcal.pl. This will follow the ScriptAlias and execute /path/to/dummy-cgi/webcal.pl. NOte that the browser will keep the location set to http://some.site/webcal/ so no-one will be any the wiser and "dummy-cgi" won't appear on the web.
