I've been unable to get CGI programs to run on Apache. I've changed the
permissions on the test-cgi program from the /var/www/cgi-bin/ to
executable, with the owner/group as apache:apache. In the cgi-bin, I've
checked to ensure that it can run cgi programs in the apache setup. But I
still get a 'forbidden' when I try to run anything. I tried typing
http://host/cgi-bin/test-cgi and test-cgi.cgi, but to no avail.

The directory permissions are kosher, with owner:group on /var/www/ set to
apache:apache, and cgi-bin is set to apache:apache.

Thinking this might be related to suexec, I renamed suexec
and then restarted apache so that suexec wouldn't be interfering (until I
get the permissions figured out). This led to the same 'forbidden' error
as before.

I have a default install of Apache, with most of the modules installed.
What things should I check to help eliminate the permissions error? Or is
this something else which I'm missing?

Regards,
Nathan
