Question

Unable to run the configure script or any other perl scripts from the twiki bin directory from the web browser as instructed. I can get scripts to run if placed in the default directory /var/www/cgi-bin. From looking at the file twiki_httpd_conf.txt file it looks like the only modification to httpd.conf is to add the include statement at the end of the file and you don't configure any virtual hosts? The section of the twiki_httpd_conf file that I don't quite understand is:

# The first parameter will be part of the URL to your installation e.g. # http://my.co.uk/twiki/bin/view/... # The second parameter must point to the physical path on your disk. Be # careful not to lose any trailing /'s.

My question is how are you supposed to configure this file to point to the twiki directories?

Thanks

This is an apache setup problem.

Somewhere you need to have the master apache config file or a bin/.htaccess file with ...

SetHandler cgi-script
Options +ExecCGI
