I believe DirectoryIndex is what you're looking for: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dir.html#directoryindex The directive takes a local url as the argument. Yours, I guess, would be simply DirectoryIndex /eumel/linch I'll give you a heads up though, you may have difficulty figuring out what directory you're actually supposed to index from inside your perl script. As I recall, the "REQUEST_URI" evn var should give you address requested by the client (at least it does in PHP), but you'll need to figure out how to translate that into a local system path. If you don't use to many aliases or rewrite rules, it shouldn't be too hard. Also, just an FYI, it looks like you might be able to use the UserDir directive to accomplish what you're now doing with Aliases. Not sure if one is better than the other. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_userdir.html Hope that helps, -Brian On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 6:12 AM, Michael Ludwig <mlu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Given the following configuration: > > Alias /eumel /home/milu/www/eumel/www > <Directory /home/milu/www/eumel/www> > Options +Indexes > </Directory> > > <Location /eumel/linch> > SetHandler perl-script > PerlResponseHandler Eumel::Web::LinCh > </Location> > > Is there a way to make the program at /eumel/linch the > directory index without resorting to an HTTP redirect? > > Michael Ludwig > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project. > See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html> for more info. > To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > " from the digest: users-digest-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > -- Feel free to contact me using PGP Encryption: Key Id: 0x3AA70848 Available from: http://pgp.mit.edu/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
