Re: CGIHandler Changes

Ok, I'm trying to test this change and I can't even get CGIHandler to work.
:) Here's the relevant httpd.conf portion:

  ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /home/swartz/servers/cgi_redirect/cgi-bin/
  DocumentRoot /home/swartz/servers/cgi_redirect/comps
  Action html-mason /cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi
  <LocationMatch "\.html$">
  SetHandler html-mason
  </LocationMatch>

When I go to any URL ending in .html, whether the file exists or not, I get
the infinite redirect thing:

  You don't have permission to access
/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.c
gi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler
.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handl
er.cgi/cgi-bin/mason_handler.cgi...

This was addressed in
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=mason&m=105856677015077&w=2, but Dave's
solution doesn't seem to apply to me. I'm not going to a /cgi-bin URL
explicitly and cgi-bin isn't in the component root.

I'm sure I'm doing something stupid. Help?
