I have a problem with Apache under Windows 2000 when i want to start a cgi (texis.exe) then i become a failure you don't have permission to open texis.exe in /cgi-bin/!

Can someone help me? Please!

cgi-bin needs to be configured using "ScriptAlias" or you need to install into a directory that is already configured with ScriptAlias. See you apache manual.

My config look like this:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:\Lib\Apache\Apache\cgi-bin\"
#
# "C:/Lib/Apache/Apache/cgi-bin" should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased
# CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.
#
<Directory "C:\Lib\Apache\Apache\cgi-bin\">
AllowOverride None
Options ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Is this okay??

Looks ok as far as I can tell. Make sure the user that apache is running CGI programs as has permissions to run texis.exe.

Yes it have but i made a mistake

c:/lib/apache............ Apache not can use \ in the Directory permission (it not find it)! Now it works!
