Hi, I had created a directory named cgi-bin insdie /var/www/ and I had kept inside that folder a .html file and a .pl file which was called in html action.But when i try to access the directory or files in that directory using http://localhost/cgi-bin/ I am getting FORBIDDEN 403 error saying that I don't have permissions to access cgi-bin directory. Googled for so much time to find the answer but even after implementing script alias code in httpd.conf file there is no use.
Even I have tried changing the owner permissions to root,nobody and www-data but it didn't work a bit. Still the same forbidden error message is displayed. It would be great if anyone give an ideal solution to this problem. Thanks in advance. Below is my latest edited httpd.conf file ServerName localhost User nobody Group #-1 DocumentRoot /var/www/cgi-bin/ ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/cgi-bin/ <Directory /var/www/cgi-bin/> Options +Indexes FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl AllowOverride AuthConfig FileInfo Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> -- Thanks & Regards, Deepak.L _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
