The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

403 Forbidden error when running .exe scripts

Asked by agubaira in Apache Web Server

Tags: plesk

Hi,

I have a serious problem when trying to execute scripts on my Fedora Core 4 server with Plesk 8 installed. I have defined a ScriptAlias directory in httpd.conf (really an include file called from httpd.conf) like this:

ScriptAlias /pav_qmail/scripts/ "/opt/pandasoftware/lib/pav_qmail/cgi-bin/scripts/"
<Directory "/opt/pandasoftware/lib/pav_qmail/cgi-bin/scripts">
      AllowOverride None
      Options -Indexes Includes ExecCGI
      AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .exe
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
</Directory>

chmod is 750 for the script directory and 755 for the scripts themselves.
chown is <website administrator> and chgrp is "psacln" as suggested by Plesk.
There are no .htaccess files defined.

The exact error message I'm getting in IE 6 is:

"Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /pav_qmail/scripts/VentanaPrincipal.exe on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

"VentanaPrincipal.exe" is one of the .exe scripts that try to execute.

Can someone help me with this ?

Thanks,
Antonio
