well... i re-installed redhat 7.3 and i cont get apache to work now. I think my httpd.conf is close to what i had it before. I couldnt find the link void main gave (it was probly in a pm that i deleted).
How do i make it so that I can use .cgi files in any directory?
Is there anything wrong with this virtualhost?:
-
You need to add this between your virtual host tags:
Obviously the "ExecCGI" is the important part of that, but I also like to use "All" and "Multiviews". You'll also need to uncomment another line higher in your conf file:
I believe that is all that I ever do...
-
there is one other thing i forgot, and that is how do i stop directory listings?
-
just remove "Indexes" and it will give you a 403 when you try to browse a directory.
Edit: 300th post :D

it will work on my internal interface (when i type 192.168.0.1:8000 but not 205.92.81.80:8000)
-
and
Try that.
-
if i did servername 192.168.0.1:8000 then that would be my internal interface. I want 205.92.81.80:8000 which is my external interface.
and it didnt work when i did 205.92.81.80:8000 or chatroom.fuckmicrosoft.com:8000.
and i tried Listen 8000 first but it didnt work, so i used the Port command: 'Port 8000' and it still didnt work

m0r, search www.apache.org (http://www.apache.org) for "vitual host". That's where I pointed you last time to get you going.

thats because i lost all my pics. I can get them all back within a few seconds though (http://smile.gif)
oh yeah, i got news from the GizzBob, fortunecity servers are down and that is why the Bob Home is down.... I might host a mirror for the site though.
-
The Bob Hub (http://www.bobhub.tk) and MES Chat (http://www.meschat.tk) should both be working now.
-
i uncommented AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
and added Options ExecCGI but my cgi scripts still wont work. It is chmodded properly but the browser says that it is forbiddden when trying to run it (http://www.meschat.tk). Anything i gotta do.
Bob sleep now.

First of all, can you view regular HTML files or do you also get "Forbidden" with them? There are two possibilities:
1) You not only have to consider the permissions on your CGI files (should be 'r-xr-xr-x') but you have to make sure you have at least 'dr-xr-xr-x' on every directory leading up to the file. At least the "apache" ID must have access to the files which includes permissions to enter and list contents of the directory ("root root dr-xr-xr-x" or minimally "apache apache "dr-x------").
2) You need to add a <Directory "/var/www/chatroom"> </Directory> section in your httpd.conf. That looks something like this:
Change the "/var/www/chatroom" to whatever your document root is. You should already have a "Directory" directive for "/var/www/html", if your DocumentRoot for your virtual server is not under that directory then add the section I have listed for you above right under the "/var/www/html" section.
P.S. I just did a little digging from "outside" of your server and it appears that you do have the directory permissions set sufficiently. It really looks like you have the permissions set wrong on $DOCROOT/everychat/everycht.cgi. Is it r-xr-xr-x on that script?

...it is.
-
it is effecting all cgi files, because my ikonboard CGI files dont work from the net.
-
Would you like me to log in and take another look?
-
sure, check yer PM.
-
Yep, your permissions are correct and according to your errorlog:
Now, where in httpd.conf is ExecCGI not turned on for this virtual host? Looks like it's turned on to me. Hmmm, was Apache restarted after the httpd.conf was modified? Let's see, httpd.conf has a date of Sep 9th, "ps auxwww | grep http" shows Apache has not been restarted since the 8th of Sept. Looks like you just need to restart httpd so the ExecCGI takes effect (actually just a reload should do it):
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd reload
-
dammit... i forgot about lookin at the error log and i changed httpd.conf for a while and kept restarting, the last time i must have forgotten to.
thanx.
You cant test the MES chat room now though... the server is going down,so that it can go on an adventure!
