I want to setup my vhost file, that when a folder is accessed, it opens, executes and serves back to the browser the out put of default.cgi I can get that working, no problem, but I want it also setup so that if the client tries to access any file on the server directly, including default.cgi, it must serve back the document /404.cgi Here is a copy of my current vhost file that happily serves default.cgi... but when I tried enable one of the rules that I have commented out, then everything I do just returns Error 500. Code: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName api.mydomain.tld DocumentRoot /home/api/endpoints <Directory "/home/api/endpoints"> Options +ExecCGI AddHandler cgi-script .cgi AllowOverride All RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / # Serve default.cgi for any folder access RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ $1/default.cgi [L] # RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d # RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ /404.cgi [L] # # Catch-all rule for any other requests not matching previous conditions # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /404.cgi [L] Require all granted </Directory> # Custom error document (optional, if you want to specify a 404 error page) ErrorDocument 404 /404.cgi # Log locations ErrorLog /home/api/log/apache_error.log CustomLog /home/api/log/apache_access.log combined </VirtualHost>
From a blank error.log, it generates a massive file from one http request. I think it is hitting a race condition. So I am now trying to research how to rather have a folder structure that is void of files, but when you got / or /endpoint or whatever, then it executes the file default.cgi from an external location. Say, /home/api/code/default.cgi or /home/api/code/endpoint/default.cgi
i think, you have to examine the way the Drupal handles it: .htaccess Code: # Make Drupal handle any 404 errors. ErrorDocument 404 /index.php index.php Code: define('DRUPAL_ROOT', getcwd()); require_once DRUPAL_ROOT . '/includes/bootstrap.inc'; drupal_bootstrap(DRUPAL_BOOTSTRAP_FULL); menu_execute_active_handler(); bootstrap.inc Code: function drupal_fast_404() { $exclude_paths = variable_get('404_fast_paths_exclude', FALSE); if ($exclude_paths && !preg_match($exclude_paths, $_GET['q'])) { $fast_paths = variable_get('404_fast_paths', FALSE); if ($fast_paths && preg_match($fast_paths, $_GET['q'])) { drupal_add_http_header('Status', '404 Not Found'); $fast_404_html = variable_get('404_fast_html', '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML+RDFa 1.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/DTD/xhtml-rdfa-1.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head><title>404 Not Found</title></head><body><h1>Not Found</h1><p>The requested URL "@path" was not found on this server.</p></body></html>'); // Replace @path in the variable with the page path. print strtr($fast_404_html, array('@path' => check_plain(request_uri()))); exit; } } }
Sorry, been hectic busy this side of the planet. Here is the working vhost file: Code: <VirtualHost *:80> ServerName api.mydomain.tld DocumentRoot /home/api/wwwroot <IfModule mod_suexec.c> SuexecUserGroup api api </IfModule> <Directory "/home/api/wwwroot"> Options +ExecCGI AddHandler cgi-script .cgi AllowOverride All RewriteEngine On # Avoid rewriting if the request is already for default.cgi RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/default\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/400\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/401\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/403\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/404\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/500\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/502\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/503\.cgi$ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/504\.cgi$ # Route all other requests to default.cgi and pass URI as a path variable and query as QUERY_DATA RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /default.cgi?path=$1 [QSA,L] Require all granted </Directory> # Custom error document ErrorDocument 400 /400.cgi ErrorDocument 401 /401.cgi ErrorDocument 403 /403.cgi ErrorDocument 404 /404.cgi ErrorDocument 500 /500.cgi ErrorDocument 502 /502.cgi ErrorDocument 503 /503.cgi ErrorDocument 504 /504.cgi # Log locations ErrorLog /home/api/log/apache_error.log CustomLog /home/api/log/apache_access.log combined </VirtualHost>
