asked on

virtual hosting out of cgi-bin

hi,

i have registered the "bob.mycompany.ucla.edu" as an alias of mycompany.ucla.edu. And i would like it to point "bob.mycompany.ucla.edu to /web/cgi-bin/bob/ on my server.

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName bob.mycompany.ucla.edu
ServerAlias bob.mycompany
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/web/cgi-bin/bob/"
DocumentRoot /web/cgi-bin/bob/
ErrorLog logs/error_log.bob.mycompany
CustomLog logs/access_log.bob.mycompany common
</VirtualHost>

when i point my browser to http://bob.mycompany.ucla.edu, it just goes to mycompany.ucla.edu and not to the /web/cgi-bin/bob/.

thanks for your help,

K

there must be a way to do it without rewrite rules--and without getting zope involved in this case. I also have zope on the server, so this info will be useful later on for sure.
