Hi,

You still need to indicate which script to execute when accessing the /sympa URL. You should then uncomment the line

#ScriptAlias /sympa /home/sympa/bin/wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi

Additionnally, you must make sure that your wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi script has the S bit. (use the command 'chmod u+s wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi' if not)
Finally, make sure that the user who need to acces the Sympa web interface are allowed to do so in your web server setup.

This should set your Sympa back on the right track!

Cheers,

Sir, I have rechecked my webserver configuration and it is as under

#USING FCGI MODULE
# Setting Alias for Sympa
Alias /static-sympa /home/sympa/static_content

# Loading Fast_CGI Module
LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so

<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
  IPCCommTimeout 120
  MaxProcessCount 2
</IfModule>

<Location /sympa>
 SetHandler fcgid-script
</Location>

# Script Alias for Sympa
#ScriptAlias /sympa /home/sympa/bin/wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi


and the sympa log is as shown below:

It now says:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /sympa on this server.

---

Apache/2.2.9 (Fedora) Server at gsp-sympa Port 80

Another thing that I have to add is after testing it here, I would host this sympa on a Server on a Virtual Machine.



Thank You in advance.

Hi Uday,

First : no the users list was the right place to post your message to. Therefore I forward your message to this list.
I think you have a misconfiguration in your web server. Please refer to the following page which describes how tpo properly configure an HTTP server for Sympa:
https://www.sympa.org/manual/web-interface#installing_wwsympa.fcgi_in_your_apache_server

Ooops, I should have posted this question to the developers list instead of the
users lists

Hello Sympa-Community,

I have installed sympa 5.4.3 on Fedora 8 with mysql 5.0.45, httpd , with
postfix. I installed the database manually.
When i first started the sympa.pl it said that sympa_aliases file was not
present, so i created it after that sympa.pl started with no issues, Then when
i started wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi by typing the following in the terminal
./wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi

it showed the following at the terminal

[sympa@GeForce-Sympa bin]$ ./wwsympa-wrapper.fcgi

I found the following in the logs

WWSympa started
[robot GeForce-Sympa] main::do_home() do_home

But when I type the url in my browser it shows

Not Found
The requested URL /sympa was not found on this server.

Can anyone help with this.
Thanks in advance
UdayKiran Chapala.
