Response to: Gleefully served
Well, I had the same problem. I decided to proceed anyway with part 3 and 4... Then I put "Allow from All" instead of "Deny from All" and now I can see the text as well as the cgi output... Is that OK?

Showing messages 1 through 3 of 3.

  I finally found that there wasn't a Directory for "/Library/Webeserver/Documents" - only ones for "/Library/Webeserver/Documents/manual/" and "/Library/Webeserver/Documents/CGI-Executables"
  
  When I added a new directory with the exact code as in the article - I was gleefully served the CGI test script in the body of my index.shtml!!
  
  Hope that helps...

  I had the same problem as the guy/gal before me. To begin with, my code added an extra directory called "manual". the original code went something like this:
  
  Alias /manual/ "/Library/WebServer/Documents/manual/"
  <Directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents/manual">
  Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews Includes
  AllowOverride None
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  </Directory>
  
  ****************************************
  The following is the CORRECT code that worked for me. (Don't forget to turn web sharing off and on again to refresh the httpd.conf file!!) good luck:
  
  Alias /Documents/ "/Library/WebServer/Documents/"
  
  <Directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents">
  Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews Includes
  AllowOverride None
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  </Directory>

  the text in my config file was different. shown below it has the word Manual.
  
  <Directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents/Manual">
  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
  AllowOverride None
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  </Directory>
  
  Note -"Manual" - not in the tutorial
  
  So I added the lines below from the tutorial. (I commented them with my name so I could find them later and delete them if it went wrong)
  
  <Directory "/Library/WebServer/Documents">
  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
  AllowOverride None
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  </Directory>
  
  Note - no "manual"
  
  just as is from the tutorial
