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)

upsstats.cgi

UPSSTATS.CGI(8) 						    NUT Manual							   UPSSTATS.CGI(8)

NAME

       upsstats.cgi - Web-based UPS status viewer

SYNOPSIS

       upsstats.cgi

	   Note
	   As a CGI program, this should be invoked through your web server. If you run it from the command line, it will either complain about
	   unauthorized access or spew a bunch of HTML at you.

DESCRIPTION

       upsstats.cgi uses template files to build web pages containing status information from UPS hardware. It can repeat sections of those
       template files to monitor several UPSes simultaneously, or focus on a single UPS.

       These templates can also include references to upsimage.cgi(8) for graphical displays of battery charge levels, voltage readings, and the
       UPS load.

ACCESS CONTROL

       upsstats will only talk to upsd(8) servers that have been defined in your hosts.conf(5). If it complains that "Access to that host is not
       authorized", check that file first.

TEMPLATES

       The web page that is displayed is actually a template containing commands to upsstats which are replaced by status information. The default
       file used for the overview is upsstats.html.

       When monitoring a single UPS, the file displayed is upsstats-single.html.

       The format of these files, including the possible commands, is documented in upsstats.html(5).

FILES

       hosts.conf(5), upsstats.html(5), upsstats-single.html

SEE ALSO

       upsimage.cgi(8)
