Bug#263038: apache2-mpm-prefork: cgi-bin doesn't seem to work
I imagine it was related to cgi changing to being built-in and then back again. just a2enmoding the cgi module should fix your problems. -Thom * Diwaker Gupta ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote : Turns out it wasn't a bug with apache2 after all (maintainer you can as well go ahead and close this bug). Unfortunately, I'm not sure how I fixed the problem, but you might want to try these steps: o use a2dismod to disable the cgi module, and a2end to re-enable it o restart apache o flush your browser cache completely and try again Lemme know if you get it working. If not, I'll try to dig in deeper into what I did. HTH Diwaker Nathan Kroll wrote: I'm having the same problem on our webservers. Any insight or workarounds to fix this temporarily?

I'm having the same problem on our webservers. Any insight or workarounds to fix this temporarily? Thanks.

Bug#263038: apache2-mpm-prefork: cgi-bin doesn't seem to work
Package: apache2-mpm-prefork Version: 2.0.50-6 Severity: important None of my perl executables in /usr/lib/cgi-bin seem to work anymore. They were working fine until the last upgrade. To be sure, I wrote the following simple Perl program (taken from http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/howto/cgi.html) and called it first.pl and placed it inside /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ = #!/usr/bin/perl print Content-type: text/html\n\n; print Hello, World.; = $ ls -l /usr/lib/cgi-bin/first.pl -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 76 2004-07-31 00:35 first.pl Relevant portion from my conf files: httpd.conf:ScriptAlias /awstats/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ I haven't changed any configuration since last upgrade. On pointing my browser to /awstats/first.pl, the browser tries to download the perl file, instead of showing the output as HTML. What gives?
