setting up apache to accept cgi

John Green 3 July 2002 13:53:27
 hi

I am used to writing perl/cgi programs at uni where i had a public_html
directory for my html, and a cgi-bin directory for my cgi scripts, but have
little experience of setting up apache on my new system to allow cgi.

I have installed mandrake 7.2 and installed the apache module.I don't
currently have a domain name as i have yet to decide what isp to setup, but
i want to write perl/cgi programs as standalone on my machine at home.

I have looked at the apache conf information and faqs, but still not sure,
as i am very new to apache.

my http.conf file has the line scriptalias cgi-bin /var/www/cgi-bin and my
test cgi script as well as the test script by apache is located in this
directory.

it also has the code in the http.conf:

<directory /var/www/protected-­cgi-bin>
allow from localhost

the Exec option is set so the directory /var/www/cgi-bin should be fine to
accept cgi scripts.

I tried in my web broswer putting http://localhost/cg­i-bin/printenv

with printenv being the cgi test script.
when i do this it comes up with the error forbidden access to
/cgi-bin/printenv

i am not sure what i am doing wrong,

if anyone can see where i am going wrong, or give any advice to setting my
machine up to accept cgi-scripts i would be very greateful.

Thank you
dave

Step one is (and this is always the case when you encounter an error)
look in the error logs.

Here's a hint, however. By default, printenv comes without the execute
bits set. This is just for general security reasons - every Apache
server everywhere has this CGI program installed, and so in a default
config, it's just made inaccessible so as to not give crackers any more
information than necessary. So, just try making sure that the file is
executable.
