http://127.0.0.1/fcgi-bin/IIPImageServer.fcgi : Forbidden 403 Error

[ghost]

Hello there,

I am having some issues setting up IIpImageServer.
I followed this tutorial to the line:
http://iipimage.sourceforge.net/2008/06/how-to-install-iipimageserver-on-your-windows-computer-using-apache-22-in-11-easy-steps/ (besides I installed Apache to C:/ Apache24)
(I adjusted the directories in httpd-iipimage.conf to

C/:Apache24/fcgi-bin/

However, heading over to "http://127.0.0.1/fcgi-bin/IIPImageServer.fcgi", I receive

httpd-iimage.conf:
`# Settings for user home directories

Required module: mod_fcgid

Create a directory for the iipsrv binary

ScriptAlias /fcgi-bin/ "C:/Apache24/fcgi-bin/"

Set the options on that directory

<Directory "C:/Apache24/fcgi-bin/">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

Set the module handler

AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi

Set our environment variables for the IIP server

DefaultInitEnv VERBOSITY "0"
DefaultInitEnv LOGFILE "c:/windows/temp/IIPImageServer.log"
DefaultInitEnv MAX_IMAGE_CACHE_SIZE "10"
DefaultInitEnv JPEG_QUALITY "50"
DefaultInitEnv MAX_CVT "3000"

Define the idle timeout as unlimited and the number of processes we want

IdleTimeout -1`

I also added everything in the httpd.conf.

Any hints?

If you're using Apache 2.4, then the syntax has changed slightly for granting access to directories. So replace the 2 lines in the Apache configuration which read:

Order allow,deny
Allow from all

with this:

Require all granted

Also if you are using the windows binary for iipsrv 1.0, then the URL will be http://127.0.0.1/fcgi-bin/iipsrv.fcgi

This tutorial is from a many years ago - I'll do an updated one to reflect these changes.
