I'm using Apache & CGI, and I'm trying to get my ScriptAliasMatch to properly handle REST type URLs.

My test Apache config contains this line:
ScriptAliasMatch ^/cgi-bin/(.*) /QSYS.LIB/CGIBINT.LIB/$1.PGM

It properly handles this URL:
https://server/cgi-bin/index

When I try a REST type URL (https://server/cgi-bin/index/id/1), it fails to load the page, and the Apache error log says "not a cgi program". If I include the extension in the URL (https://server/cgi-bin/index.pgm/id/1) it works, but I really don't like doing that. I tried modifying the ScriptAliasMatch, but I can't get anything that will work.

Any suggestions?

TIA
