Try using

Required all granted

and not

Order allow,deny
Allow from all


2.4 does not like the old style much even with the compat module loaded.

Also, you may added logging for other cgi errors with

ScriptLog /path/to/script-error.log

can be useful trying to figure out other problems

I added:
Require all granted
and remove:
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

But still when open http://localhost/cgi-bin/ tell me error 403 Forbidden

This my httpd.conf file:

Mod note: Moved the config to: https://apaste.info/gw9z

#!c:\perl64\bin\PERL.EXE

I think your problem is the uncommented ScriptAlias line.
Any URL to your sever that calls cgi-bin is going to look for files at "C:/AppServ/Apache24/cgi-bin/".

The ScriptAlias is global and overrides any cgi-bin unless it's specifically added in a virtual host or directory container further in the config.

ScriptAlias stays commented out on my server so I can have many different domain specific /cgi-bin locations.

---

/path/to just means "wherever you want," just make sure it's a valid location. For ease however,

ScriptLog logs/script-error.log

will put it in Apache's logs folder at C:/AppServ/Apache24/logs/script-error.log

But i doni't have this path

Quote:
"C:/AppServ/Apache24/cgi-bin/".


Correct path for my computer for cgi-bin folder is in www

Code:
C:/AppServ/www/cgi-bin/


Can tell me how add ScriptAlias in virtual host or directory container further in the config ?

Also need modify .htaccess file ?

Yeah you don't and that is a bug in AppServ's config looking inside the latest download at SourceForge.

But if ${SRVROOT} == C:/AppServ/Apache24
then
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "${SRVROOT}/cgi-bin/" == C:/AppServ/Apache24/cgi-bin/

Understand how I am getting that path?

No, because it's already explained in Apache's docs but it's unfortunate that it doesn't have a German translation.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/sections.html

Read this first because as AppServ is configure, you cannot use htaccess files
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/howto/htaccess.html

Sorry but I do expect you to understand a little about what your working with first.

Hi Moh3en,
xampp has by default a directory for that c:\xampp\cgi-bin

There is no need to change the config. Just place your file in that folder and open http://localhost/cgi-bin/jmarshall.cgi
