I'm using apache on Linux. I just set up a very simple IP based vhost configuration. Each user will have a www/ directory in their home directory for html stuff and www/cgi-bin/ for the cgi stuff. Does anyone know the best method for allowing the cgi-bin?
I am initially trying to use suEXEC. I need to safely allow each user to be able to have cgi scripts. These scripts need to be run as the user so that they can read/write their own home directories safely. Here is my main httpd.conf (not the vhost stuff): ServerRoot /etc/httpd/2.0 DocumentRoot /var/www/html ... Here is how I am setting up the Vhosts and suEXEC: <VirtualHost 192.168.0.5> SuexecUserGroup erin erin DocumentRoot /home/erin/www ServerName test2.com </VirtualHost> Here lies the problem. The main document root is set to /var/www/html. Each vhost as a separate DocumentRoot. When I run a script, the suexec error log seems to be complaining that the script is not within the DocumenetRoot! It surely should be under the vhost's Document root .. just not under the main DocumentRoot. Just to test it I even changed the main DocumentRoot to /home. I still get the same error. How do I correct this? Here is the exact error: [2003-08-10 05:48:17]: uid: (502/erin) gid: (502/502) cmd: test.cgi [2003-08-10 05:48:17]: command not in docroot (/home/erin/www/cgi-bin/test.cgi) I even read a bit more it appears that there is a Document Root and User Dir compile time option for usexec. These are set to the correct things (as far as I know). Thanks, Michael and Erin
