hello guys, i installed php on apache 2 on w2k and it is working fine on the root directory. although, when i work with the virtual servers, it seems not to. all my cgis with perl, are working fine, the problem is that i created a new directory, outside cgi-bin, called "php-dearagua" and the server keeps telling me "forbidden" and the acces log says the following... "[Sun Jan 26 12:40:46 2003] [error] [client 200.84.149.241] Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: C:/web/dearagua/php-dearagua/poll/hello.php, referer: http://www.dearagua.com/ [Sun Jan 26 12:40:53 2003] [error] [client 200.84.149.241] Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: C:/web/dearagua/php-dearagua/poll/hello.php, referer: http://www.dearagua.com/portforward.asp?p=/php-dearagua/poll/hello.php&q=" i have redirected the port because my isp has blocked the port. the"portforward......" is added by the isp that is redirecting my port, mine is a simple call. the php is working, on the initial root, i used "swamp" to install it. i have read many tutorials, and they explain how to installed php on apache, but never talked about virtual serververs. what i am missing? thanks marco
