NSCA to APACHE migration problems 1

[sjcrane]

We are migrating some servers from AIX 4.3 to AIX 5.3. We had NCSA on the old server and loaded apache 1.3 on the new server.

When we start the server on the new system some of the cgi-bin files (xxxx.cgi) work fine but some don't all the symlinks (files) do not seem to work. We have set the httpd.conf file to:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/site/webdata/cgi-bin/"

#
# "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased
# CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.
#
<Directory "/site/webdata/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

The browser shows:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/spicam_caxi/aimSurvey.cgi on this server.

Apache/1.3.31 Server at p595c-e25.ca.boeing.com Port 80


The old server works fine with both static files and symlinks....



Any ideas???

You have 'Options none', try 'Options FollowSymLinks'.

Thanks but I wasn't trying to hint for a star. It was kind of a joke. I was kind of surprised that the thread ended so fast. I was starting to get used to the real long drug out kind. Thanks again though.

I really appreciate the quick response... These server migrations are a pain due to application versioning and changes.

Thanks again....
