Hi
all.
Debian Stretch OS
I have installed the BackupPC /Apache2 package before and had no
trouble accessing the BackupPC GUI at localhost/backuppc. This
time (using apt install backuppc) I keep getting a window asking
if I wish to save a bin file. The server downloads a file like
W6gLcuk0.bin instead of serving up the GUI web page. I have tried
several things suggested on line but nothing seems to work.
Apache2 was installed using the .iso net install disk.
On past installations, the GUI worked out of the box. Not this
time.
Any help will be sincerely appreciated.

I see that there is an apache.conf file in the /etc/backuppc
directory. My installation has a symbolic link to that file in
the /etc/apache2/conf-enabled directory. The settings in that
file seem to control the backuppc cgi-bin directory. Here is what
in my file:
Alias /backuppc /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/
<Directory /usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/>
AllowOverride None
Allow from all
# Uncomment the line below to ensure that nobody can sniff
importanti
# info from network traffic during editing of the BackupPC
config or
# when browsing/restoring backups.
# Requires that you have your webserver set up for SSL
(https) access.
#SSLRequireSSL
Options ExecCGI FollowSymlinks
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
DirectoryIndex index.cgi
AuthUserFile /etc/backuppc/htpasswd
AuthType basic
AuthName "BackupPC admin"
require valid-user
</Directory>
Hope this gets you in the right direction.
