This is really baffling because CGI was working last week and now when I try it again and it is not working. All I did was add a name based virtual host in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ and /etc/apache2/sites-available/ I am running apache2-mpm-prefork version 2.2.9-7 on Debian lenny/sid. /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ has darcs.cgi, darcsweb.cgi and awstats.pl Previously to access one of these I would do: http://www.jesujuva.org/cgi-bin/darcsweb.cgi But now when I do that I get this file not found error: 404 Not Found The requested URL /cgi-bin/darcsweb.cgi was not found on this server. Apache/2.2.9 (Debian) PHP/5.2.6-3 with Suhosin-Patch Server at www.jesujuva.org Port 80 It is clearly there so why is it saying not found? Argh this is so frustrating. /etc/apache2/sites-available/default has: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ <Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> /etc/apach2/mods-enabled/cgi.load has: LoadModule cgi_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_cgi.so ls shows this module exists: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20256 2008-08-08 13:39 /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_cgi.so /etc/apache2/mods-available/cgid.conf has: # Socket for cgid communication ScriptSock /var/run/apache2/cgisock /etc/apache2/conf.d/darcsweb.conf has: Alias /darcs /var/www/darcs Alias /darcsweb /usr/share/darcsweb <Directory "/usr/share/darcsweb"> AllowOverride None Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all RedirectMatch ^/darcsweb$ /cgi-bin/darcsweb.cgi </Directory> I don't see why it worked last week and now it doesn't. I didn't upgrade apache2, I didn't edit any of the config files except adding a named based virtual host which I did by creating /etc/apache2/sites-available/darcs which has: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName darcs.jesujuva.org ServerAlias jesujuva.org www.jesujuva.org darcs.jesujuva.org DocumentRoot /var/www/darcs </VirtualHost> And creating a symlink to that named darcs in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled So why is CGI not working and how can I fix it? I get the same "404 Not Found" error if I try other programs in /usr/lib/cgi-bin such as darcs.cgi or awstats.pl Zach --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
