Jim,

Many thanks. I tried this
ScriptAliasMatch ^/cgi-bin/(.*)\.pgm$ /QSYS.LIB/ E310PRDOBJ.LIB /$1.pgm
as you kindly suggested but, for the second screen, got error 404 Not Found
with The requested URL /cgi-bin/E31RPP.PGM/081401642797145/ was not found
on this server, with the complete URL
http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bin/E31RPP.PGM/081401642797145/ above.

The log said
[Mon Dec 03 10:39:43 2018] [error] [client 192.168.2.210] ZSRV_MSG0018:
File /erroshome/cgi-bin does not exist, referer:
http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bin/erros
[Mon Dec 03 10:39:43 2018] [error] [client 192.168.2.210] ZSRV_MSG0016: URI

referer: http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bin/erros

I don't understand why it should be looking in erroshome, my route
directory.
I did wonder about the backslash and whether this is correct. Should it be
a forrward slash or is there one slash too many?
CGIDEBUG records the output of the first, correct, screen but nothing for
the error.

I have tried other ideas but without any success.

Further help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Rob

Try this (from a working system - I substituted your lib name)
ScriptAliasMatch ^/cgi-bin/(.*)\.pgm$ /QSYS.LIB/
E310PRDOBJ.LIB /$1.pgm

Jim,
Many thanks for this. I don't think that that is the problem as I use
exactly the same programs and program structure in 5250 mode and there are
no problems. In any event, if this were the problem, I think that it would
be reported differently.
Any other suggestions please?

A purely wild guess, but is the system trying to call that program
recursively? Where at V5R1 it was OK in that circumstance but now
it's protected? Maybe the new Apache is calling it recursively and
the old one was not. I would look in the history log to see if you
get any insight there. I'm sure you've already looked in the job logs
of the http server, and the http error logs.

Subject: [WEB400] Apache - persistent CGI problem: ZSRV_MSG0109

I have been running a persistent CGI application on a V5R1 system for
ten or more years using the IBM original HTTP server. I have now
transferred it to a V5R3 system and must run it under Apache. My
static pages work correctly but I am having problems with my dynamic
persistent CGI pages.
The first screen is displayed correctly with data retrieved from the
database, so I assume that there are no security problems, yet, when I
click on Enter to access the second screen, I get

ZSRV_MSG0109: /QSYS.LIB/E310PRDOBJ.LIB/081302393085252 is not a cgi
program: /QSYS.LIB/E310PRDOBJ.LIB/081302393085252, referer:
http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bin/erros

The URL in the error message above is wrong because it omits the name
of the CGI program, yet the correct URL, with the CGI program name -

http://192.168.2.70/cgi-bn/E31RPP.PGM/081302393085252/ is displayed on
the error screen with the 404 Not Found error message and “The script
request is not valid. The script is not executable.“

The CGI program is E31RPP. This also was used for the first screen,
having been called by the initial program. It successfully called the
database handler that retrieved data for that first screen.

I am at a loss to understand how Apache puts the correct URL on the
error screen yet omits the name of the CGI program internally.I have
switched on CGIDEBUG. This records the valid first screen but nothing
further is added when I make the second request. The problem is logged
in the error log.

I assume that my Apache configuration must be wrong, and, in
particular, the ScriptAliasMatch directive, but I am including the
whole configuration code below as there might be another problem.

I would really appreciate some help please. I have tried many versions
of my configuration but without success.

Many thanks
