Randomly changing settings without knowing what they're doing seldom solves a problem (even if it's a nice learning experience).

Change back the httpd.conf settings. The Directory directive needs a real path as an argument, not an Alias.

The Forbidden message came up because Apache, by default, does not allow directory indexing as a security measure. That does not mean that you can't access the files inside, it only means you'll have to know the exact name.

And your script does exactly what you told it to (which isn't necessarily what you wanted). It takes the name of an image as an argument, and displays said image. So you'd have to call it as http://mywebserver/pass.cgi?image=test.png it would display the image "test.png" from the directory /var/www/html/rrdtool/

CGI passing arrays/hashes to another CGI script

If I have a Perl CGI script (script01), which fills an array(s) with information and outputs a HTML page with a link to another CGI page (script02); is there anyway to pass the array(s) from "script01" to "script02" when the page visitor clicks the link? Hope that makes sense! :) (2 Replies)

NAME
img-png - Img, Portable Network Graphics format (png) SYNOPSIS
package require Tk package require img::png ?1.4? image create photo ?name? ?options? _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
The package img::png is a sub-package of Img. It can be loaded as a part of the complete Img support, via package require Img, or on its own, via package require img::png. Like all packages of Img it does not provide new commands, but extends the existing Tk command image so that it supports files containing raster images in the Portable Network Graphics format (png). More specifically img::png extends Tk's photo image type. The name of the new format handler is png. This handler provides new additional configuration options. See section PNG OPTIONS for more detailed explanations. All of the above means that in a call like image create photo ?name? ?options? [1] Image data in png format (options -data and -file) is detected automatically. [2] The format name png is recognized by the option -format. In addition the value for the option is treated as list and may contain any of the special options listed in section PNG OPTIONS. PNG OPTIONS
The handler provides no true options at all, but accepts pairs of keys and values when writing a PNG file. Each pair will be written as a named text chunk where the key provides the name of the chunk and the value its contents. For example png Author <name> Title <title> Description ... TRANSPARENCY
If you want to write images to disk which contain transparency information (e.g. PNG with alpha channel) you need at least Tk 8.3. SEE ALSO
