httpd chokes on ScriptAlias line in Apache httpd.conf


I'm trying to point Apache to my cgi-bin directory, but

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /usr/www/cgi-bin

is causing restarts of httpd to fail with

Syntax error on line 4 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
Invalid command 'ScriptAlias', perhaps mis-spelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration.

Of course, ScriptAlias is not mis-spelled. /etc/httpd/modules has a mod_alias.so and mod_cgi.so. Is there another module that I need?

Thanks!

The proper ScriptAlias would be this:


ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/www/cgi-bin"


Notice the quotes.
