[Mon Dec 12 19:35:00 2005] [error] [client 192.168.0.6] (13)Permission
denied: exec of '/var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/printenv' failed
[Mon Dec 12 19:35:00 2005] [error] [client 192.168.0.6] Premature end
of script headers: printenv
i have set the ownership of the entire www dir to apache:apache and it
still didnt work.
i have this in my http.conf file:
<Directory "/var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/
what could be wrong?
