Hmm. So far, the only way I've been able to reproduce this is by
replacing
the ScriptAlias directives with mere Alias's in the xymon.conf apache
config.

I am using the config, as is, that came as xymon-apache.conf with the
source 4.3.20

Has there been any change in the path you've used for the CGI
directory
since the previous version, or is there any chance that another Alias
line

xymon and xymon-client debian version 4.3.17 has been removed, so no
more xymon in /usr/lib/xymon

Thanks,

Can you send a copy of the previous and current xymon.conf configs?

Here is the current config

I do not have any old config as I removed the old install

I'm really not sure what to make of this. Everything in the apache config
looks to be correct; I can't see at all why apache would fail to execute
the CGI vs simply sending you the file.


Can you try two experiments?

First, replace one of the .sh files with a symlink (instead of a hard
link) to the cgiwrap binary. I'd like to see if we can rule out the
hardlink itself being the problem.


Second, can you compare to the xymon-apache.conf with the
xymon-apache-secure.conf.DIST file in the build directory to see if there
were any unexpected changes?


Are there any other files in apache's /conf.d/ directory that might be
taking precedence here?
