You should be modifying /etc/apache/httpd.conf (unless you have built the
source by hand - then: find /etc -iname "httpd.conf")
According to the documentation for apache 1.3 - you should be loading
mod_dir module somewhere in your httpd.conf (usually it is already included,
but could be commented out - in which case you should uncomment the line;
otherwise, this is the line from my httpd.conf:
LoadModule dir_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_dir.so
then, somewhere in your httpd.conf you should also include the following
lines:
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.cgi
</IfModule>
This 'should do the trick'.
As far as your cgi's are concerned, debianized system would often keep its
cgi scripts in /usr/lib/cgi-bin - but you should make sure that your
httpd.conf has appropriate entries for cgi's:
LoadModule cgi_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/mod_cgi.so
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin/>
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
[these lines were taken from the default httpd.conf supplied with debian's
apache package]
Hope this helps... if you are having problems with cgi's in apache, you
should read over the following:
