Re: apache2 does not display blosxom blog (resolved)



The immediate solution turns out to be simply to add "cgi-bin" to the
url:

    http://localhost/cgi-bin/blosxom/

But the documentation and tutorials on the Apache web site
(httpd.apache.org) show how to rewrite, map, etc., within the Apache2
configuration file in order to simplify the url to something such as:

    http://localhost/blog

Regarding alternatives to Blosxom: Blosxom is written in Perl.  A
clone (which since has taken on a life of its own) is Pyblosxom, which
is written in Python.  Both are CGI scripts.  And both currently are
in use, with Pyblosxom apparently having a larger user base and being
somewhat better supported by its somewhat-more-active community of
users.
