Hi folks:
Sorry for the noob question on here, but I've never encountered this before. I'm working on a small CGI app using mod_perl, and I'm getting the usual "file permissions deny server execution" error. The odd thing is that this isn't for the CGI script itself, but for every linked file in the "images/" directory! Disabling mod_perl for this Location "fixes" the problem, but I'd rather figure out what is causing this.
Why would mod_perl attempt to execute images?
<Location /assetdb>
SetHandler perl-script
PerlHandler Apache::Registry
Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks
PerlSendHeader On
</Location>troubleticket-dev:/var/www/assetdb# ls -l images/ | awk '{print $1,"",$9}'
