For starters, there is a reason why scripts are only permitted to run in the cgi-bin... it's what the cgi-bin is meant to be used for. If scripts were just allowed to run anywhere, then you'd find out that plain html files, text files, images, and everything non-script would fail to load because Apache would try to execute them as scripts.

As for using ScriptAlias for every single directory you want to run scripts in, why? That's what the Options directive is meant for! If your host permits it, stick an htaccess file in the subdirectory you want to execute scripts in, and place the following line(s) in it:

# .htaccess file # You might need the following line. Maybe, maybe not AddHandler cgi-script .pl # Turn on CGI script handling in this directory # and all subdirectories Options +ExecCGI

-------------------------------------
eval reverse@{[lreP
=>q{ tsuJ\{qq},' rehtonA'
,q{\}rekcaH },' tnirp']}[1+1+
1,1-1,1+1,1*1,(1+1)*(1+1)];

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
