Description Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2010-12-02 08:29:37 UTC
Description of problem:
apcupsd-cgi as shipped gives Attempt to invoke directory as script
http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/DirectoryAsScript explains hos to fix this

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
apcupsd-3.14.0-3.el5.src.rpm

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have working httpd setup
2. have UPS
3. yum install apcupsd-cgi
4. access http://localhost/apcupsd/ with a browser
  
Actual results:
[error] [client X.X.X.X] attempt to invoke directory as script: /var/www/apcupsd/

Expected results:
seeing info on the UPS

Additional info:
after changing my /etc/httpd/conf.d/apcupsd.conf to read as follows, it looks OK
#
# apcupsd configuration file for Apache Web server
#

# files are off the documentroot of Web server
#ScriptAlias /apcupsd/ "/var/www/apcupsd/"
Alias /apcupsd /var/www/apcupsd
<Directory /var/www/apcupsd>
 AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
 Options ExecCGI
</Directory>

#
# Allow only local access at default
# Change the ".example.com" to match your domain or modify
# access rights to your needs to enable remote access also.
#
<Directory "/var/www/apcupsd">
    DirectoryIndex upsstats.cgi
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI Indexes
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
    Allow from ::1
    Allow from .mydomain.com
</Directory>


Obviously X.X.X.X in the error depends on accessing client and "Allow from .mydomain.com" on my local network
