[rt-users] "Ordinary" CGI-Scripts don't work after installing RT2

[Josh Krikke]

This is more of an Apache and Mason question, but here you go:
1. You don't have a ScriptAlias in there for your cgi-bin
2. After you put that in, Mason will still try to handle all your requests.
I'd put a
<FilesMatch "*.html">
    SetHandler perl-script
    PerlHandler RT::Mason
</FilesMatch>
instead of your <Location /> tags.  I've not had problems with that.
3. If that is your only IP, then once you put that VirtualHost in there,
directives in there will override everything else in your httpd.conf file.

See http://httpd.apache.org/docs for more information.

I have installed RT2 and it is working very well.  But now I find that
ordinary perl scripts placed in my cgi-bin directory that worked before I
setup my virtual server for RT2 no longer run.  I thought that the directory
has probably just moved - but I cant see any obvious alternatives under my
/opt/rt2 path.  If I comment out the Virtual host settings for RT the server
foinds my scripts again.

Please can anyone suggest what I might have done wrong.  Extract from my
httpd.conf follows:

VirtualHost 192.168.150.251>
DocumentRoot /opt/rt2/WebRT/html

ServerName citypack.city.lnk
PerlModule Apache::DBI
PerlRequire /opt/rt2/bin/webmux.pl
<Location />
 SetHandler perl-script
 PerlHandler RT::Mason
</Location>
</VirtualHost>


Thanks in advance
