OK, I've upgraded to El Capitan from Mountain Lion on my Mac, and my webserver is up and running, sorta. Two issues, that I'd like to get some wisdom on.
(1) First of all, my indexes don't have icons attached, corresponding to mime type. They did before. The icons are in /usr/share/httpd/icons, but my server evidently doesn't seem aware of them. How do I point to them?
(2) I had a perl script that I used as a cgi bot-test on the home page. As in, type in the year to prove you are human. That doesn't work anymore. I call up that cgi page, and it just prints the text on that page.I'm hearing that maybe Apache 2.4 doesn't natively support perl yet? What are my options? |

FWIW, Apache is giving me a
"client denied by server configuration: /usr/share/httpd/icons/blank.gif"
error message when one of these icons (blank.gif) is requested. All of these shared system icons offer read permission to everyone, so that's not the issue.
So the question is more how do I keep my server configuration from denying this file to the client??
One thing that kinda sucks about El Capitan is that users aren't natively allowed to make mods to /usr files, even as root. Yes, you can disable the new System Integrity Protection system, but that's sort of a PIA. |

The file permissions are ok for /usr/share/httpd/icons/ ?
Is there a <Directory /usr/share/httpd/icons/> in the config? |
