I have recompiled apache for suexec to use /home as DocumentRoot. I am trying to get suexec to work and have success when I use one virtual host with the following configuration: ------------------- In /opt/apache/conf/httpd.conf I have inter alia: ------------- NameVirtualHost * ... Include httpd.d ------------- In httpd.d I have jspies.apache with the following content: -------------------------- Alias /jspies /home/jspies/public_html <VirtualHost *> DocumentRoot /home/jspies/public_html ServerName jspies ErrorLog /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log TransferLog /usr/local/apache/logs/access_log User jspies Group jspies <Directory "/home/jspies/public_html"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> ScriptAlias /jspies/ "/home/jspies/cgi-bin/" <Directory "/home/jspies/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options None Options +ExecCGI Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> </VirtualHost> -------------------------- So far so good. Suexec works and the following there is one virtual host (I have configured apache to use port 81 here as for testing purposes):
------------------------ $ /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd -S Processing config directory: /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d Processing config file: /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/jspies.apache VirtualHost configuration: wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers: *:81 is a NameVirtualHost default server jspies (/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/jspies.apache:13) port 81 namevhost jspies (/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/jspies.apache:13) ----------------------- Now copy jspies.apache to js.apache and rename all the "jspies" strings to "js", restart apache. There should be two virtual hosts now: jspies and js. Restart apache and do a "httpd -S" again: ------------------------------- Processing config directory: /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d Processing config file: /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/js.apache Processing config file: /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/jspies.apache VirtualHost configuration: wildcard NameVirtualHosts and _default_ servers: *:81 is a NameVirtualHost default server js (/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/js.apache:13) port 81 namevhost js (/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/js.apache:13) port 81 namevhost jspies (/usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.d/jspies.apache:13) ----------------------------------------- Only the virtual host for js gets recognized and the cgi-test for jspies no longer works (I just did a "reload" on my browser): ---------- [Mon Feb 17 11:13:47 2003] [error] [client 146.232.128.37] File does not exist: /home/jspies/public_html/hello.cgi --------- The point is that hello.cgi is in cgi-bin, not in public_html and when jspies is the only virtual host defined, that is where apache finds it and suexec executes it. Suexec works for js however. I suspect it is because js.apache will be read before jspies.apache when it is included in the configuration. ---------------- 146.232.128.37 - - [17/Feb/2003:11:16:51 +0200] "GET /js/hello.cgi HTTP/1.0" 200 13 ---------------- And in the suexec log: ------ [2003-02-17 11:16:51]: info: (target/actual) uid: (js/js) gid: (js/js) cmd: hello.cgi ------ I have spent many hours in trying to solve this and will appreciate some help please.
