Hi,

I'm a beginner at Apache and the webserving thing. I set my machine
up with the root dir as web, http docs in web/http, and my cgi bin in
web/cgi-bin. In cgi-bin I have a folder called forum, and in that is
a script called setup.pl
I'm supposed to run setup.pl, but when I do, I get the message "403
Forbidden: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/
forum/Setup.pl on this server."

I have all the directories set to allow everything to everyone.

In the error log it says "client denied by server configuration: C:/
web/cgi-binforum"
In the access log it says ""GET /cgi-bin/forum/Setup.pl HTTP/1.1" 403
224"

Can anyone tell me what is wrong?

For the record, I'm running Apache 2.2.6 and Windows XP Pro

Thanks,
LinuxMercedes
