Apache Server error: "couldn't create child process"

[EMF]

I want to integrate Bugzilla with Apache HTTPD 2.0.45 on W2K professional.

The bugzilla is stored in c:\bugzilla, and the Perl is installed on c:\perl

the checksetup.pl passed.

The followin is the setting I added in httpd.conf of Apache Server:

ScriptAlias /bugzilla/ "C:/bugzilla/"

<Directory "C:/bugzilla">
Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride Limit
DirectoryIndex index.cgi
</Directory>

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi pl


When I access bugzilla using http://localhost/bugzilla/index.cgi, I got the
"internal Server Error", The error message in error.log is
[Wed Feb 04 15:03:25 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system
cannot find the path specified. : couldn't create child process: 720003:
index.cgi
[Wed Feb 04 15:03:25 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 3)The system
cannot find the path specified. : couldn't spawn child process:
C:/bugzilla/index.cgi

The first line in index.cgi is
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

I try to change it to:
#!C:/perl/bin
I got the error message in error.log as:
[Wed Feb 04 15:13:03 2004] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (OS 5)Access is
denied. : couldn't create child process: 720005: index.cgi

denied. : couldn't spawn child process: C:/bugzilla/index.cgi

What's worng with the configuration in httpd.conf

Thank very much for your help.

I want to integrate Bugzilla with Apache HTTPD 2.0.45 on W2K professional.

Which version?

Post by EMF
ScriptAlias /bugzilla/ "C:/bugzilla/"

Where in the documentation does it tell you to add this? Search the docs
for "ScriptAlias".

Post by EMF
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi pl

I don't think this is exactly what the instructions say either...

make sure the account that the apache service is configured to start as has
access to your perl directory.
