[Programming] Multiple Domain/Sub Domain for one [shared] CGI-BIN
Posted by a. Rahman Isnaini r. Sutan on January 9th, 2009
I’m using web authentication with Apache and working with one domain..
I got confusing in adding another domain with working directory under the root directory under the first domain.
Both domains require cgi-bin.
The scheme : cgi-bin located in root directory of the first domain.
Some said that :
- cannot have two cgi-bin in one server
- one cgi-bin could used by one domain/subdomain only.
What I have tried and works :
a. Existing Domain
- Create New Root Directory for First Domain [used to be in htdocs]
- Move All file needed in the Root Directory of First Domain to the new created one [Inclue .htacces & .htpasswd files]
- Change all file in first domain which contain the “a href” link for all the linked page to cgi-bin directories & files.
Before : [e.g] /cgi-bin/test.cgi
After : [e.g] ../cgi-bin/test.cgi
b. New Domain
- Create New Root Directory for Second Domain/Sub Domain
- So in htdocs there will be Root Directory of each Domain & cgi-bin as well.
- Create in httpd.conf your new virtual domain and point to this new root directory.
- Use the same link ../cgi-bin/test2.cgi [e.g] as above for “a href”
c. Existing default Apache
- Create file Index.htm which contains : “Not Authorized Page”
In case of someone access default web by IP, still cannot see your default directory contents
