I wonder if someone could give me some hints on how to properly configure Apache to enable a cgi-bin in users directory. Scripts runs fine in the default ScriptAlias directory. According to the documentation at apache.org, I need to enable Addhandler cgi-script cgi (eventhou in httpd.conf it reads Addhandler cgi-script .cgi) and add a directory directive to the main configuration file where the scripts are. So I added: <Directory /usr/home/xxxx/public_html/cgi-bin> # in the manual it says to have path without " but ones again in # httpd.conf all directory have " around the path Options +ExecCGI </Directory> I have tried both versions - with or without the " and with or without the "." When I try to run a .cgi script in the users cgi-bin I get a 403 permission denied error in the browser. Both the cgi-bin and the script is chmod to 755. In the httpd-error.log I have the following error: Options ExecCGI is off in this directory What am I missing?
