I assume that you have a UserDir directive elsewhere in your configuration; otherwise, what you've written probably won't be enough. See this guide for the full details: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/public_html.html I typically find that using the ScriptAlias directive does what I want, although I don't work with user directories myself. Here's an example: ScriptAlias /cgi/ "/home/paul/some_directory/" I imagine that the ScriptAliasMatch directive would also be able to do the home directory matching that you are doing in your configuration file. See the documentation for both directives here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_alias.html#scriptalias Apart from using ScriptAlias, I don't usually do anything more than check the ownership/permissions on the CGI directory and the script. Naturally, the PYTHONPATH (or sys.path) needs to be configured to find non-installed modules and packages, but such things are beyond this particular problem.
