CGI/perl scripts support

[Spacedust]

Any plans ? Customers want it and we cannot provide it...

It can be easily made when using nginxproxy+lighttpd !

Lighttpd supports perl scripts out of the box

Example:

PHP script - nginxproxy -> Apache -> php-fpm
perl script - nginxproxy -> Lighttpd

Try install mod_perl for apache.

I've installed it but all perl scripts throws Internal Server Error ...

If I run simple Hello world in cgi-bin with permissions 555 then it''s executed properly.

I've also installed: yum -y install perl-devel perl-CPAN perl-Module-Build perl-core perl-libwww-perl

1. Don't need mod_perl
2. Permissions of file must be 755
3. Perl file format must be:

Code: [Select]

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
...4. If want perl in all website directory, modified:

Code: [Select]

<Directory "<?php echo $rootpath; ?>/">
AllowOverride All
<IfVersion < 2.4>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</IfVersion>
<IfVersion >= 2.4>
Require all granted
</IfVersion>
</Directory>
to:

Code: [Select]

<Directory "<?php echo $rootpath; ?>/">
AllowOverride All
<IfVersion < 2.4>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</IfVersion>
<IfVersion >= 2.4>
Require all granted
</IfVersion>
Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
</Directory>

So I just need to this add this to custom.defaults.tpl.conf and custom.domains.tpl.conf then running /script/fixweb ?

What about python scripts ?

@Spacedust.  It is very easy to use perl to hack kloxoMR without a chroot environment.   I was hoping by now this would be resolved, but still no jailed/chroot for cgi.

With hiawatha / proxy it is VERY simple, yet there is a file that must maintain the linux user names, chroot directories, and it is a pain in the ass to do this manually.  But I have.  Hugo added anything but '!.pl' support to hiawatha reverse proxy, then you let hiawatha's cgi wrapper chroot to a users home directory.

I'm sure we could automate it using kloxomr template, but I am writing the integration for our forums and our vps sales, so I have no time at the moment.

Mustafa could look into this.  It is simple.  VERY SECURE.
