Problems With new install - CGIWrap Error: Script dir not found

[McCann, Brian]

I'm no expert, but everything you have is close to what I have in my
working system, except I don't use the "Options ExecCGI" line.  What, if
anything, is in the apache error and access logs?  When I was setting
mine up originally, those logs made it easy to find the problem.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Problems With new install - CGIWrap Error:
Script dir not found

Hello, 

trying to get nagios installed onto a fedora core 1 server,
I get an error whenever I access the cgi files,

CGIWrap Error: Script dir not found

------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------

The specified user does not have a script directory set up for execution

of cgi scripts, or the directory permissions prevent cgiwrap from using 
that directory.

the /usr/local/nagios/sbin/ directory is 777
and all the CGIs are 777

now if I access the nagios system from a secure connection i.e. https://


I get another error

Whoops!
Error: Could not read object configuration data!

but I've created all my object config files as directed.

the apache conf  is as follows
---------

ScriptAlias /nagios/cgi-bin/ /usr/local/nagios/sbin/
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/sbin/">
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Options ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

Alias /nagios/ /usr/local/nagios/share/
<Directory "/usr/local/nagios/share">
    Options None
    AllowOverride AuthConfig
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/local/nagios/sbin>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
order allow,deny
allow from all
Options ExecCGI
</Directory>

<Directory /usr/local/nagios/share>
AllowOverride AuthConfig
order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

---------
I've also got nagiosweb (PHP/MySQL configuration tool) installed.

When I access the site with HTTP:  it seems to work,
but when I access the site with HTTPS the php is not parsed and only the

text of the script is displayed.

Any ideas on what I'm missing?

thanks,
           Ian McCloy
