I'm running RedHat 5.1 with Apache Web Server. I've been successful in seeing
and replacing the "It worked! Test Page for Apache Installation"
(/home/httpd/html/index.html) from other machines.
I have a HTML Form in the same directory as the test page. When I place
script-files in /home/httpd/cgi-bin and set the Form Method=Post
Action=/cgi-bin/scriptname.pl I get a "Forbidden" Error (accessing cgi-bin)
when I submit the form.
What am I doing wrong here?
Permissions for /home/httpd, /home/cgi-bin, and /home/html are all drwxr-xr-x
I haven't created any .htaccess in any directories to override the *.conf
files, which are very close to defaults but listed below:
