Hey all, Well I almost have all this working perfect. I just seen today that my form is not working. It says we dont have permission to access the file. Have a look for yourself. http://www.e-scan.com/catalog/order.htm Just fill out a name and hit submit. You will get this: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /cgibin/order.cgi on this server. I have CGI enabled on the site. I do have the php disabled and have tried it enabled and still nothing. Anyone, please help?
well I get the followin error message, which is slightly different: For me it looks like the CGI is executed. The question is just if the file does really not exist or the access rights to that file are set properly.
I know I fixed it by using webmin and making some changes there, but not sure if I should have done that...
First, never use webmin on a ispconfig server, the changes that you make with webmin will be removed automatically when you chenge something in the site in ispconfig. If you need some additional directives in a vhost you have to add them in the apache directives field of the website.
thanks till, did not know. So if I reverse what I did in webmin, how can I get my cgi to work. Basically in Webmin , under Apache, and for that vhost I set the directories and documents to allow cgi. In ispconfig, I had the cgi box checked but kept getting an the forbidden access denied error???
So how would I allow these cgi to work? You can look at this site, www.exeba.com and enter a email address on the top and hit submit and you get Code: ERROR 403 - Forbidden! The following error occurred: You are not permitted to access the requested URL. Please contact the webmaster with any queries. I have made sure that cgi is enabled. I just need to know what to do in ispconfig to make this work....
Till, I still cannot get this tow work. I'm not sure what log I should be looking at. Also, where do my cgi scripts go? Right now I have them in a folder in the root of my website called "cgibin" I notice outside of the root of my website there is a folder called "cgi-bin"????? I really need to get this work, I would greatly appreciate the help. --Steve
error.log in the log directory of the website. Every website has just one log directory and there is just one error.log in it. the cgi-bin folder of the website. there is no such folder called cgibin in ISPConfig. The folder is called cgi-bin and it is outside the web folder.
Here is the error log Code: [Fri Jul 10 01:40:22 2009] [error] [client 76.83.21.252] client denied by server configuration: /var/www/exeba.com/web/index.php [Fri Jul 10 01:40:26 2009] [error] [client 76.83.21.252] Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: /var/www/exeba.com/web/cgibin/index.cgi, referer: http://www.exeba.com/ I know ispconfig does not have the cgi where I said. These sites used to be on a windows2000 server box and the cgi was in a folder called cgibin with the root of the website. So I need to move them to /var/www/exeba.com/cgi-bin, only thing is when I update my cgi scripts path will it see that directory or will it default to the root of the web??? I hope I make sense...this is new for me...thanks!!
Ok, I moved all my cgi files to cgi=bin, and updated my html pages and my cgi scripts with the new path, now I get this? Code: 009] [error] [client 76.83.21.252] suexec policy violation: see suexec log for more details, referer: http://www.exeba.com/ 009] [error] [client 76.83.21.252] Premature end of script headers: index.cgi, referer: http://www.exeba.com/ Any ideas??
