"run the CGI jobs under the signed in user" - can anyone direct me to
the IBM docs on this ?

There's an option to run the CGI jobs under the signed in user (you'll
have to look at IBM's doc on this, this was an extension to Apache) but
that introduces scalability problems. The problem is when you say "run
under the logged in user", the HTTP server starts a CGI worker job for
that user. When you hit the max number of CGI jobs, it kills the least
recently used one and starts a new one up. When you get lots of traffic,
you end up spending a lot of time starting and stopping the CGI jobs.

From a scalability standpoint, it would be better to create a user for
this that has the least amount of authority needed to access the spooled
files and then have the CGI program switch to that user internally.

Charles - I do have AS400 authentication enabled, but no matter who I
signed in as, I was not able to access ANY spooled file (in the sample
program WRKCGISPLF), until I changed the QTMHHTP1 profile (which I don't
like either - as you say).  

When I entered  *all in the user id of the Browser prompt, all spool
files on the system show!  That would not be a problem if when the user
clicks on one which WAS NOT THEIRS, then access would be denied.
However, I was not able to access any of them - even using qsecofr
validation??

Probably not the solution you want to use.

Now anybody who can get to the web server can access all your spool
files.

Instead, you can configure Apache to ask for a users iSeries user ID and
password, then the CGI job will switch over to that profile to do the
work it needs to.

The CGIDEV2 documentation shows how to do it.  If you need more help
just ask.

Thanks, I gave Spool Control Special Authority access for that 
profile, and that did it!

Unless you changed the defaults, it's QTMHHTP1.

The job log of QZSRCCGI shows Not authorized to spooled file.  I'm not

sure what user profile is "in effect" here?

You're missing the last ")" in the command but now that the program is

getting called, you should be able to start a service job on the job 
running the CGI program and debug it like you normally would.

That did it Matt, thanks.  Now the program loads up fine, but I get an

I think you just need to add .pgm to the end of the URL. I think you 
can also add *.PGM to the end of the ScriptAlias to achieve the same 
thing (I'm not 100% sure on that) but try adding .pgm in the URL 
first.

Greetings,

I am trying to get my first CGI (WRKCGISPLF) to execute.

Here is my configuration below:  I have compiled the WRKCGISPLF into 
the library named DONC.  When I run 
http://amereqip.com/cgi-bin/wrkcgisplf,
I get "page cannot be found".
