LSWS 4.2: cgi-script override is not allowed in .htaccess

[tina]

We just upgraded to LiteSpeed Web Server from 4.1.13 to 4.2, on a cPanel server, and suddenly we are getting this error for sites that use 'AddHandler cgi-script' in .htaccess files to add their own extensions:

"cgi-script override is not allowed in .htaccess"

The error did not appear in 4.1.13, and we did not change any settings, although we did select 'Re-install' during the upgrade as recommended, in order to run the new PHP SuExec daemon.

How do we fix this error?

you can put "DisableCgiOverride On" in Apache Style Configurations (Admin Console -> Configurations -> Server -> General).

We are using Apache binary wrapper on normal CentOS 6 64-bit running cPanel, and did not put "DisableCgiOverride On" in the httpd.conf file.

It seems that LSWS 4.2 automatically sets "DisableCgiOverride On" on such systems, so it could be a bug.

Can you confirm this?

you can put
DisableCgiOverride Off

in httpd.conf .
It is default to "On" with 4.2 release.
