Re: [cobalt-developers] Re: CGI Wrap Errors

Hey Everyone,

There is a very neat way to disable CGI Wrap on a folder (and subsequent
subfolder) by folder basis. Check out the KBase article 774 (search on
only that number in the search box). In brief, you are creating a
.htaccess file with the following line items...

Options +ExecCGI 
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi 
AddHandler cgi-script .pl 

This disables the whole tree of that folder, and you don't have to monkey
with the conf files.

Remember, now you have to deal with security issues for that directory,
and you should know what you're doing before you tackle that.

Hope this helps, it helped me.

The other alternative would be for enough of us to complain and get Cobalt
to give their developers some time to finally FIX cgiwrap. THAT would be a
great use of time...
