In this configuration file I added in /etc/httpd/conf.d, lets call it application.conf, and for some cgi scripts found outside the document root for the apache server, lets call the foreign folder /path/to/scripts/outside/documentroot, I'd like to know how to get it where the user types in http://www.website.com/name/application.cgi and it will run the script?
I've been playing around with something like:
$ cat > /etc/httpd/conf.d/application.conf
ScriptAlias /name/ "/path/to/scripts/outside/documentroot"
<Location /name/>
PassEnv SOME_ENV
</Location>
$ /etc/init.d/httpd restart
But it doesn't work. Is a good use of scriptalias? Should I use the directory directive instead? I have Apache/2.2.3. Please help, thanks
