Hi everyone,

I've looked all over the place and I just cannot figure out why I'm getting
this error:

Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible:
/home/xymon/cgi-bin/svcstatus.sh, referer:
http://home.com/xymon/allservers/allservers.html

Here is part of what my xymon-apache.conf looks like:

Alias /xymon  "/home/xymon/server/www"
<Directory "/home/xymon/server/www">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes MultiViews
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

ScriptAlias /xymon-cgi/ "/home/xymon/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "/home/xymon/cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI Includes
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

ScriptAlias /xymon-seccgi/ "/home/xymon/cgi-secure/"
<Directory "/home/xymon/cgi-secure">
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI Includes
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all


Any help/handouts/hints would be very helpful!

Hi Everyone..

Found the problem... added FollowSymLinks. Now everything is good.  Thanks!
