What if you start with http://localhost/home.html?
Well, that's interesting. I don't know where that is. If I put that in the address bar IE doensn't know where it is either.
There's a directory specified in http.conf like this:
DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"
What you probably need is this (if it's not already):
DocumentRoot "C:/AcuTrackWebDevelopment/CBSI/acu-track.com/web"
This tells Apache where to look for localhost files.
You have to always use an HTTP URL. You cannot just use a file path.
Well I did that and http://localhost/cgitest.exw works so does http://acu-track.com/cgitest.exw
but the root is not preprended to /cgi/cgitest.exw when the calling html page links. I have here my entire httpd.conf if you can see something amis. I know it's simple but I don't see it.
- #
- This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file. It contains the
- configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
- See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2> for detailed information.
- In particular, see
- <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html>
- for a discussion of each configuration directive.
- #
- Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
- what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure
- consult the online docs. You have been warned.
- #
- Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
- of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
- server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin
- with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/foo.log"
- with ServerRoot set to "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2" will be interpreted by the
- server as "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/foo.log".
- #
- NOTE: Where filenames are specified, you must use forward slashes
- instead of backslashes (e.g., "c:/apache" instead of "c:\apache").
- If a drive letter is omitted, the drive on which httpd.exe is located
- will be used by default. It is recommended that you always supply
- an explicit drive letter in absolute paths to avoid confusion.
- #
- ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
- configuration, error, and log files are kept.
- #
- Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path. If you point
- ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to point the LockFile directive
- at a local disk. If you wish to share the same ServerRoot for multiple
- httpd daemons, you will need to change at least LockFile and PidFile.
- ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2"
- #
- Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
- ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
- directive.
- #
- Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
- prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.
- #
- Listen 12.34.56.78:80 Listen 80

- Dynamic Shared Object (DSO) Support
- #
- To be able to use the functionality of a module which was built as a DSO you
- have to place corresponding `LoadModule' lines at this location so the
- directives contained in it are actually available _before_ they are used.
- Statically compiled modules (those listed by `httpd -l') do not need
- to be loaded here.

- #
- If you wish httpd to run as a different user or group, you must run
- httpd as root initially and it will switch.
- #
- User/Group: The name (or #number) of the user/group to run httpd as.
- It is usually good practice to create a dedicated user and group for
- running httpd, as with most system services.
- User daemon Group daemon
- 'Main' server configuration
- #
- The directives in this section set up the values used by the 'main'
- server, which responds to any requests that aren't handled by a
- <VirtualHost> definition. These values also provide defaults for
- any <VirtualHost> containers you may define later in the file.
- #
- All of these directives may appear inside <VirtualHost> containers,
- in which case these default settings will be overridden for the
- virtual host being defined.
- #
- #
- ServerAdmin: Your address, where problems with the server should be
- e-mailed. This address appears on some server-generated pages, such
- as error documents. e.g. admin@your-domain.com
- ServerAdmin gwalters@acu-track.com
- #
- ServerName gives the name and port that the server uses to identify itself.
- This can often be determined automatically, but we recommend you specify
- it explicitly to prevent problems during startup.
- #
- If your host doesn't have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.
- #
- ServerName localhost:80
- #
- DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
- documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
- symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
- #
- DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs"
DocumentRoot "C:/AcuTrackWebDevelopment/CBSI/acu-track.com"
- #
- Each directory to which Apache has access can be configured with respect
- to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that
- directory (and its subdirectories).
- #
- First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
- features.
- <Directory /> Options FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Order deny,allow Deny from all </Directory>
<Directory "C:/AcuTrackWebDevelopment/CBSI/acu-track.com"> Options FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory>
<Directory "C:/AcuTrackWebDevelopment/CBSI/lc.acu-track.com"> Options FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI AllowOverride None Order allow,deny allow from all </Directory>
- #
- Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow
- particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as
- you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it
- below.
- #
- #
- This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
- <Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs">
- #
- Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
- or any combination of:
- Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
- #
- Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly*
- doesn't give it to you.
- #
- The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please see
- http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options
- for more information.
- Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
- #
- AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
- It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
- Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
- AllowOverride None
- #
- Controls who can get stuff from this server.
- Order allow,deny Allow from all
</Directory>
- #
- DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory
- is requested.
- <IfModule dir_module> DirectoryIndex home.html #index.html </IfModule>
- #
- The following lines prevent .htaccess and .htpasswd files from being
- viewed by Web clients.
- <FilesMatch "^\.ht"> Order allow,deny Deny from all Satisfy All </FilesMatch>
- #
- ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.
- If you do not specify an ErrorLog directive within a <VirtualHost>
- container, error messages relating to that virtual host will be
- logged here. If you *do* define an error logfile for a <VirtualHost>
- container, that host's errors will be logged there and not here.
- ErrorLog "logs/error.log"
- #
- LogLevel: Control the number of messages logged to the error_log.
- Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
- alert, emerg.
- LogLevel warn
<IfModule log_config_module>
- #
- The following directives define some format nicknames for use with
- a CustomLog directive (see below).
- LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
<IfModule logio_module>
- You need to enable mod_logio.c to use %I and %O LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-Agent}i\" %I %O" combinedio </IfModule>
- #
- The location and format of the access logfile (Common Logfile Format).
- If you do not define any access logfiles within a <VirtualHost>
- container, they will be logged here. Contrariwise, if you *do*
- define per-<VirtualHost> access logfiles, transactions will be
- logged therein and *not* in this file.
- CustomLog "logs/access.log" common
- #
- If you prefer a logfile with access, agent, and referer information
- (Combined Logfile Format) you can use the following directive.
- #
- CustomLog "logs/access.log" combined </IfModule>
<IfModule alias_module>
- #
- Redirect: Allows you to tell clients about documents that used to
- exist in your server's namespace, but do not anymore. The client
- will make a new request for the document at its new location.
- Example:
- Redirect permanent /foo http://localhost/bar
- #
- Alias: Maps web paths into filesystem paths and is used to
- access content that does not live under the DocumentRoot.
- Example:
- Alias /webpath /full/filesystem/path
- #
- If you include a trailing / on /webpath then the server will
- require it to be present in the URL. You will also likely
- need to provide a <Directory> section to allow access to
- the filesystem path.
- #
- ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
- ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
- documents in the target directory are treated as applications and
- run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the
- client. The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias
- directives as to Alias.
- #
- ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin/"
- ScriptAlias /cgi/ "C:/AcuTrackWebDevelopment/CBSI/lc.acu-track.com/cgi/"
ScriptAlias /cgi/ "C:/AcuTrackWebDevelopment/CBSI/acu-track.com/cgi/"

- #
- DefaultType: the default MIME type the server will use for a document
- if it cannot otherwise determine one, such as from filename extensions.
- If your server contains mostly text or HTML documents, "text/plain" is
- a good value. If most of your content is binary, such as applications
- or images, you may want to use "application/octet-stream" instead to
- keep browsers from trying to display binary files as though they are
- text.
- DefaultType text/plain
<IfModule mime_module>
- #
- TypesConfig points to the file containing the list of mappings from
- filename extension to MIME-type.
- TypesConfig conf/mime.types
- #
- AddType allows you to add to or override the MIME configuration
- file specified in TypesConfig for specific file types.
- #
- AddType application/x-gzip .tgz
- #
- AddEncoding allows you to have certain browsers uncompress
- information on the fly. Note: Not all browsers support this.
- #
- AddEncoding x-compress .Z
- AddEncoding x-gzip .gz .tgz
- #
- If the AddEncoding directives above are commented-out, then you
- probably should define those extensions to indicate media types:
- AddType application/x-compress .Z AddType application/x-gzip .gz .tgz
- #
- AddHandler allows you to map certain file extensions to "handlers":
- actions unrelated to filetype. These can be either built into the server
- or added with the Action directive (see below)
- #
- To use CGI scripts outside of ScriptAliased directories:
- (You will also need to add "ExecCGI" to the "Options" directive.)
- AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .exw
- For type maps (negotiated resources):
- AddHandler type-map var
- #
- Filters allow you to process content before it is sent to the client.
- #
- To parse .shtml files for server-side includes (SSI):
- (You will also need to add "Includes" to the "Options" directive.)
- #
- AddType text/html .shtml
- AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .shtml </IfModule>
- #
- The mod_mime_magic module allows the server to use various hints from the
- contents of the file itself to determine its type. The MIMEMagicFile
- directive tells the module where the hint definitions are located.
- #
- MIMEMagicFile conf/magic
- #
- Customizable error responses come in three flavors:
- 1) plain text 2) local redirects 3) external redirects
- #
- Some examples:
- ErrorDocument 500 "The server made a boo boo."
- ErrorDocument 404 /missing.html
- ErrorDocument 404 "/cgi-bin/missing_handler.pl"
- ErrorDocument 402 http://localhost/subscription_info.html
- #
- #
- EnableMMAP and EnableSendfilefile: On systems that support it,
- memory-mapping or the sendfile syscall is used to deliver
- files. This usually improves server performance, but must
- be turned off when serving from networked-mounted
- filesystems or if support for these functions is otherwise
- broken on your system.
