Re: Debian-Installer: Webserver, Apache, mod_cgi, partial solution.
Instead of installing Apache (version-1) I could have
RTFM.
mods-enabled/
.....
For example:
cgi.load -> /etc/apache2/mods-available/cgi.load
See:-
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/01/msg04729.html
It may nice if mod_cgi was enable by default by Sarge
installer (rc1). Perl and php are enabled by default,
but as cgi is not these module do not work.
