RE: [newbie] CGI Not working after install
There is a squid cgi script in the /cgi-bin dir from the installation. I installed squirrelmail and it apparently needed to run a cgi script too, but both told me I didn't have permission to run either file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of robin Sent: Wednesday, January 29, 2003 4:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] CGI Not working after install gcobb wrote: After the install, I tried running a few CGI programs from the web.

RE: [newbie] CGI Not working after install
in one of the apache conf files (in /etc/httpd/conf) there is a section defining the cgi-bin, by default its set to: Deny All, you need to change that in order to get the scripts executing... I had to when I setup my webserver. rgds Frank -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of gcobb Sent: Thursday, 30 January 2003 1:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [newbie] CGI Not working after install There is a squid cgi script in the /cgi-bin dir from the installation.

[newbie] CGI Not working after install
After the install, I tried running a few CGI programs from the web. They told me permissions were denied or I otherwise didn't have access to the cgi script in /var/www/cgi-bin/. I changed the dir to the name Apache runs under and made the dir and everything under it executable. I looked out on the Apache site and wasn't able to make any progress. I use httpd.conf and commonhttpd.conf as a result of my install. I compared them to docs I read and I can't see any reason why they aren't working. Is there something I can try to see how to get this to work? Thanks! Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
