A carefull reading of that cgi documentaion doesn't really deal with |
| 16 |
what happens once you've set a ScriptAlias to /cgi-bin/ |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
What I'm seeing is that once tha that happens any directory under |
| 19 |
DocumentRoot has to have explicit Options ExecCGI it is not |
| 20 |
recursive. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
However, it is recursive at $public_html even though ScriptAlias is |
| 23 |
set to localhost/cgi-bin/... I don't quite understand why it works |
| 24 |
like that I guess. Although I can live with having to edit httpd.conf |
| 25 |
anytime I add a directory under DocumentRoot that might need ExecCGI |
| 26 |
it just appears inconsisitent. |
