[users@httpd] Scriptalias redirect not working on ubuntu 14.04
On ubuntu 14.04, I have made the following modifications to /etc/apache2/conf-available : [code begins] Define ENABLE_USR_LIB_CGI_BIN Define ENABLE_USR_LIB_CGI_BIN #ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/http/run/ # AllowOverride None Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Require all granted [code ends] I.E. /usr/lib/cgi-bin is changed to /home/http/run A simple shell script named 'cgitest' is provided and is set as executable.

[users@httpd] apache prints python code rather than executes (fastcgi)
Using apache on Mac OSX 10.7.
I have a test django application with a executable file named
index.fcgi (permissions = 755)
My .htaccess looks like this :
#
AcceptPathInfo On
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.fcgi/$1 [L,QSA]
#
When I point my browser to the directory in which the file
is located, the code is printed out, rather than executed.
I'm sure that there are other options to be enabled, but I am brand
new to fastcgi (note: fastcgi is enabled).
If this is deployed to a website where my domain is hosted, I will
not have access to apache configuration, thus .htaccess must do
all the work (if possible).
TIA

Yup. Here we have it:
in
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
added the following:
AddHandler cgi-script .py
restarted apache
/usr/sbin/apachectl restart
(That's for OSX/darwin/bsd flavor,
differs on linux)
And now .htaccess looks like this:
# begin .htacces
AcceptPathInfo On
Options +ExecCGI
DirectoryIndex journalLoader.py
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1
!^(journalLoader\.py|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./journalLoader.py/$1 [L,QSA]
# end .htacces
Note that pathinfo is critical for me, as virtual
document path segments map to controllers, views and methods
Thanks for the tip! Any other constructive criticisms or suggestions
are welcome.

[users@httpd] rewrite engine shows text instead of executes script
To the best to my memory, the following .htaccess worked on linux, but
on OSX, the result is that the browser gives me the text of the
script, rather the output of the script.
FYI: The script is fully functional when requested via cgi-bin.
# .htaccess
RewriteEngine On
DirectoryIndex journalLoader.py
RewriteCond $1
!^(journalLoader\.py|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./journalLoader.py/$1 [L,QSA]
# /.htaccess
the script journalLoader.py is at the path
http://linus.johnson.com/cgi-bin/baker/journal/journalLoader.py
(internal search domain) and when requested provides the
output I expect.
The directory/folder contain journalLoader.py is symlinked to
my wwwroot directory.
When I point my browser to http://linus.johnson.com/journal
!!
The server gives me the text for the script rather than the output
!!
I'm woefully underinformed when it comes to .htaccess and mode
rewrite, but it occurs to me that if this works on a linux box and
not the the OSX platform, some configuration is need for Apache?
What would that be?
thanks

[users@httpd] htaccess is blocking cookie transmission
I have an internal site at the following file path:
/home/http/kbmls/ and since /home/http is the document root, the
site is referenced as follows: http://bart.johnson.com/kbmls.
bart.johnson.com is my internal domain (locally resolved host).
The default page is kbmlsLoader.py, which is symlinked from
/home/tim/prj/cgi/baker/kbmls so that I can used both traditional
cgi and a 'clean URL'.
I find that the cookie set by the first request to the site
http://bart.johnson.com/kbmls is not being transmitted. IOWS: A
check for the cookie on a second request does not find it, even
though I can verify that the cookie is set on my system.
It is likely that something is wrong with my .htaccess file
Code:
AcceptPathInfo On
Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script py
DirectoryIndex kbmlsLoader.py
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /kbmls
RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} lang=([^;]+) [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1?lang=%1 [NC,L,QSA]
RewriteCond $1
!^(kbmlsLoader\.py|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./kbmlsLoader.py/$1 [L,QSA]
What am I doing wrong?

[users@httpd] How htaccess enables CGI script as default page
I'm using apache 2 on mint 10 (ubuntu 10 derivative)
I'm attempting to use .htaccess to make an executable python script
as the default page for a directory.
My document root is at /home/http
I have an .htaccess file at /home/http/kbmls
I have a script - index.py at /home/http/kbmls
/home/http/kbmls permissions are set to 755
index.py permissions are set to 755
Code for .htaccess follows:
##
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.py|images|css|js|robots\.txt|favicon\.ico)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.py/$1 [L,QSA]
##
When I point the browser to /home/http/kbmls the browser
offers to download everything - obviously not what I want.
If possible, I would like to do this without any system-wide
configuration changes - such as I have had to do with dir.conf in
the past (if I recall correctly)
What else do I need to do with .htaccess?

Thank you Igor. The changes that you recommend above for .htaccess
have been implemented. I believe that I have solved my problem.
best of luck. Keep up the great help.

Yes, that solves that problem, but creates another: now a
ScriptAlias directive fails.
So now I have the following in total:
ScriptAlias /reg/ /home/http/py/
DirectoryIndex pyindex.py
#AllowOverride all
## Scriptalias will not work with AllowOverride set to 'None'
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Now if I point the browser to http://localhost/py, pyindex.py executes,
but if I point the browser to http://localhost/reg I get
"You don't have permission to access /reg/ on this server."
.htaccess is as follows:
# begin
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./pyindex.py/$1 [L,QSA]
# end
*However* I really don't need the ScriptAlias. But this is a learning
experience for me.
Thank you.

[us...@httpd] internal redirects error
I'm using apache2 on ubuntu 10.04. I am a programmer familiar with the command line, but new to fine-tuning apache. I'm getting following error message: """ Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use 'LimitInternalRecursion' to increase the limit if necessary """ This is caused by the follow directive (I believe) DirectoryIndex pyindex.py AllowOverride all Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Order allow,deny Allow from all The intent is that for directory /home/http/py the default 'page' would be pyindex.py. And I want to restrict pyindex.py as only the default page for that particular directory. So what is the configuration error? thanks -- Tim tim at johnsons-web.com or akwebsoft.com http://www.akwebsoft.com - The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.

Yeah right. :) why didn't I remember to do that?

Well, I have done some 'poking around'. I have altered the
configuration of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/dir.conf
with the following directive:
##
DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.py index.cgi index.pl
index.xhtml index.htm
##
I can verify that index.html and index.php will work, based on the
priority of the file entries. However, if I rename both index.php
and index.html - I get the following error message:
"""
You don't have permission to access /index.py on this server
"""

[us...@httpd] cgi script as domain root index (howto)
This questions concerns apache(2) on ubuntu 10.04 and apache on
centOS (OS version 7?)
Using the following apache directive:
ScriptAlias /reg/ /home/http/py/
AllowOverride all
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
And the following .htaccess directives:
#
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ./index.py/$1 [L,QSA]
#
I can point my browser to http://localhost/reg/
(with trailing slash) and get a response from
'index.py'
Two questions ::
1)How may I configure apache so that users will not need the
trailing slash?
2)How may I configure apache so that pointing my browser to
http://localhost
will give me the response from a CGI script at /home/http ?
Relevant keywords, and URLs are also welcome.
TIA

I'm using apache2 on ubuntu 10.04. Some CGI applications on my own desktop are no long working. The error message stored in the logfile will be something like this: """ (2)No such file or directory: Could not open password file: /usr/local/apache/passwords File does not exist: /home/http/error_pages """ This started happening after I enabled mode_rewrite for apache. some CGI applications with the same permissions and ownership as those generating errors are working. It should also be noted that the ownership and permissions of the directories of the files that work are the same as that of the directories of the files that *do not* workd.
