Disable mod_rendezvous to solve Apache cgi-bin problems
Authored by: seancorfield on Jun 03, '03 01:50:34PM
Seems very strange to me that mod_rendezvous could have anything to do with cgi-bin behavior... However, I did notice that the default permissions on printenv etc in the CGI-Executables folder were 664 when they need to be 775 (well, they need to be executable!).

http://localhost/cgi-bin/printenv didn't work for me until I did this:

sudo chmod +x /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/*

That wasn't it; the permissions were definitively correct (in fact, it ran perfectly right after disabling mod_rendezvous, without any changes to permissions).

I have encountered other similar problems where moving the 'offending' command elsewhere up the list solved the problem; I just didn't try it here.
