Beginner apache question here.

I have a cgi script which allows users to upload a file to "upload" directory. It works within my internal network.

From outside my network (Internet) the page/upload portion of the script won't work:

[Wed Dec 22 17:16:29 2010] [error] [client 46.201.57.23] client denied by server configuration: /var/www/html/upload/upload.cgi

I have a feeling it is due to me upgrading from Apache 2.0 to 2.2.3 on my Centos box.

Here is a snippet from my httpd.conf. Do I need to uncomment out the two lines that have the # in front?

Thanks

<VirtualHost www.domain.com>
ServerAdmin john@email-address.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html
ServerName www.domain.com
ErrorLog logs/www-error_log
CustomLog logs/www-access_log combined
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
AllowOverride All
# Order allow,deny
# Allow from all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

yes, having the # in front means it wont read those configs.also chomod 755 the upload.cgi, can the website be seen outside your network?

Hi,

The commented lines and the apache upgrade have nothing to do with this.
I guess there is a .htaccess file that allows access only from your LAN and not for the rest.

Regards

Thank you Bathory! You were right, I didn't even realize/see the .htaccess file that was blocking outside visitors. I edited the .htaccess file and everything works now!
