need help on apache 1.3 for one site, two cgi-bin folders
| Posted by surfmanjoe, 07-12-2007, 09:42 PM | | my server has just one site, apache conf has such a line:
and
then, my cgi script may run well under the said folder,
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/cgi-bin
but I have another script need to be setup another cgi-bin under its own folder below htdocs folder, like,
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/anotherscript/cgi-bin
however, when I run the said script in browser:
the browser just shows source codes, instead of running it. I am guessing something wrong in httpd.conf,
may I know how to set apache httpd.conf to meet my requirement? thanks.

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
I'm going to assume that it is present, since it works under another directory, but the fact that it's only showing the source code of the .cgi has me wondering...

Just add another ScriptAlias and another section in your httpd.conf - like what you've shown except for the different path. Then restart apache. Job done
