[EMAIL PROTECTED] Forbidden error on .exe files in apache on RH 4.0

2007-08-23 Thread Ali, Saqib
Hello All,

I just installed a RH 4.0 box with apache, and I am getting a
"Forbidden" error when trying to d/l .EXE files.

The log says:
Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: /path/path/file.exe

Any thoughts?
Saqib

In httpd.conf, you have an Options directive applying to that path (or
a parent directory) that does not include the ExecCGI option.

Well, they are marked as such in your config file. You likely have an
AddHandler or AddType directive designating .exe files as cgi scripts.
You'll need to get rid of that if you want them downloaded without
processing.

because this directory doesn't have ExecCGI options,you can add it if 
needed.like,


AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
