I couldn't find anything in the official docs that explains what '!'
means in this context, so I just went with my gut.<br>
<br>
I ended up creating a symlink in the ROOT folder for the /cgi-bin
folder and pointed it to /var/www/cgi-bin and that seems to solve the
problem, sort of. There are a few things about this that makes it
appear sloppy for virtual hosting, but hey, it works.<br>
<br>
So, in summary, added the following to the virtual host entry of
httpd.conf to allow access to /cgi-bin:<br>
<br>
ProxyPass /cgi-bin/ !<br>
<br>
And then create a symlink like so:<br>
pwd = /opt/tomcat5/webapps/ROOT/<br>
ln -s /var/www/cgi-bin/ ./cgi-bin<br>
<br>
Then restart httpd.<br>
<br>
Also, because SEO is such a big concern nowadays, you might be
interested in the change I made in the opencms-importexport.xml file.
I also removed the $SERVLET_NAME variable from the vfs path.
Otherwise, every single link created with <cms:link> has
/opencms/ at the beginning, and thus, *every* link becomes a redirect
(SEO anathema).<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help and hope you have a great day!<br>

A hint: Check out the mod_proxy docs on what lines like the following are
actually used for:
ProxyPass /export/ !

Subject: [opencms-dev] How? /cgi-bin/ and OpenCMS ROOT installation?
I have OpenCMS 6 beta 1 running as the ROOT application and
resolving like so:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mysite.com/">http://www.mysite.com/</a>
or
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mysite.com/system/login/">http://www.mysite.com/system/login/</a>
My question is this:
Now that I have implemented all the fun stuff in the
"Integrating OpenCms, Tomcat and the Apache webserver with
mod_proxy", how do provide access to my scripts, particurlaty
AWstats?
Essentially, I need to be able to do this:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/awstats/awstats.pl">http://www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/awstats/awstats.pl</a>
After the changes, here is what my httpd.conf file looks like
for this particular configuration:
<VirtualHost xxx.xxx.xx.xxx:80>
<Directory /home/admin/mysite.com/html>
Options Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/awstats /var/www/cgi-bin/awstats Alias
/awstats /var/www/html/awstats ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/awstats
/var/www/cgi-bin/awstats Alias /awstats /var/www/html/awstats
ServerName mysite.com DocumentRoot /opt/tomcat5/webapps/ROOT/
SuexecUserGroup admin admin ServerAlias "<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.mysite.com">www.mysite.com</a>"
"<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="ftp://ftp.mysite.com">ftp.mysite.com</a>" "mail.mysite.com"
ServerAdmin <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:admin@mysite.com">"admin@mysite.com"</a>
ScriptAlias "/cgi-bin/" "/home/admin/mysite.com/cgi-bin/"
CustomLog "/home/admin/aruba-guide.info/access_log" "combined"
ErrorLog "/home/admin/aruba-guide.info/error_log"
# Log only non-redirect requests in "normal" log file
SetEnvIf Request_URI "\/opencms\/*" redirect CustomLog
logs/aruba-guide-access.log common env=!redirect
ProxyPass /opencms/ !
RedirectPermanent /opencms/
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.aruba-guide.info/">http://www.aruba-guide.info/</a>
ProxyPass /resources/ !
ProxyPass /export/ !
ProxyPass /
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://127.0.0.1:8081/opencms/">http://127.0.0.1:8081/opencms/</a>
ProxyPassReverse /
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://127.0.0.1:8081/opencms/">http://127.0.0.1:8081/opencms/</a>
</VirtualHost>
Could I simply add the following line to make this work:
ProxyPass /cgi-bin/ !
Thanks
