ScriptAlias problem (running CGI scripts)

[jddk23]

Hello everybody,

I can't make a silly ScriptAlias to work. I have an application (Web Calendar) installed at /srv/

http://www/htdocs/wcal.

I want to access it through localhost/wcal/index.cgi so I modified /etc/httpd/httpd.conf with:

ScriptAlias /wcal/ "/srv/

http://www/htdocs/wcal/"

But it doesn't like to work. I have as well the default ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/srv/

http://www/cgi-bin/"

and every test script that I create in /srv/

http://www/cgi-bin/

and access from localhost/cgi-bin/*.pl or *.cgi works fine.

I know it's a silly problem but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I read as many webpages as you can imagine but I can't find out where the problem is.

I'll really appreciate your comments to help me find out what I'm doing wrong.

Thank you!!

Jorge

Hi

Just questions :
[ol]
[li]The Web Calendar works if is installed in the /cgi-bin/ ?[/li]
[li]What means "But it doesn't like to work." ?[/li]
[li]In what language is written that Web Calendar ?[/li]
[/ol]
Additionally I would read the Web Calendar's documentation, looking for requirements and installation advices.

Do you have options +ExecCGI set for directory htdocs/wcal or htdocs?

Do the scripts have the executable bit set(chmod 755)?

If you cd to htdocs/wcal can you execute the scripts from the commandline?

You might also look at the SetHandler directive, but it would be redundant to your ScriptAlias in your case
