[expert] apache 1.3.6 and .cgi scripts not in cgi-bin

[Duncan Hall]

I've uncommented the line in httpd.conf

# To use CGI scripts:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

I'm using apache-1.3.6-50mdk
When I try to run a script that is not in the cgi-bin I get the following Error

403

Forbidden


You don't have permission to access /Weekly/CHARTS/index.cgi on this server.



To test it I have chmod 777 but still no luck.

Before I get flamed about perl scripts not in cgi-bin, this script is on a secure intranet.



It worked perfectly on redhat 5.2 with apache 1.3.2



Any thoughts



Dunc
