I'm attempting to use .htaccess to make an executable python script as the default page for a directory.
I recently wanted to have *all* hits for a particular subtree to go to a Perl CGI script on Debian 6.0.0 and Apache 2.2 via .htaccess. The key was realizing that I could catch index hits via DirectoryIndex and "not found" hits via ErrorDocument 404.
I ended up with two files in my DocumentRoot:
.htaccess
handler.pl
Here is .htaccess:
$ cat .htaccess
Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script pl
DirectoryIndex handler.pl
ErrorDocument 404 /errordocument/handler.pl
Hits to http://example.com/ go to handler.pl, and REQUEST_URI is set
accordingly.
Hits to http://example.com/somedynamicdoc.hmtl go to handler.pl, and REQUEST_URI, REDIRECT_REQUEST_METHOD, and REDIRECT_STATUS are set accordingly.
If someone knows the name of my instance script, that works too -- hits to http://example.com/handler.pl go to handler.pl, and REQUEST_URI is set accordingly.
