From the Apache FAQ

22. Why do I keep getting "Method Not Allowed" for form POST requests?

This is almost always due to Apache not being configured to treat the file you are trying to POST to as a CGI script. You can not POST to a normal HTML file; the operation has no meaning. See the FAQ entry on CGIs outside ScriptAliased directories for details on how to configure Apache to treat the file in question as a CGI.

13. How do I enable CGI execution in directories other than the ScriptAlias?

Apache recognizes all files in a directory named as a ScriptAlias as being eligible for execution rather than processing as normal documents. This applies regardless of the file name, so scripts in a ScriptAlias directory don't need to be named "*.cgi" or "*.pl" or whatever. In other words, all files in a ScriptAlias directory are scripts, as far as Apache is concerned.

To persuade Apache to execute scripts in other locations, such as in directories where normal documents may also live, you must tell it how to recognize them - and also that it's okay to execute them. For this, you need to use something like the AddHandler directive.

1.In an appropriate section of your server configuration files, add a line such as

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

The server will then recognize that all files in that location (and its logical descendants) that end in ".cgi" are script files, not documents.

2.Make sure that the directory location is covered by an Options declaration that includes the ExecCGI option.

In some situations, you might not want to actually allow all files named "*.cgi" to be executable. Perhaps all you want is to enable a particular file in a normal directory to be executable. This can be alternatively accomplished via mod_rewrite and the following steps:

1.Locally add to the corresponding .htaccess file a ruleset similar to this one:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteBase /~foo/bar/

RewriteRule ^quux\.cgi$ - [T=application/x-httpd-cgi]

2.Make sure that the directory location is covered by an Options declaration that includes the ExecCGI and FollowSymLinks option.

30.Why can't I publish to my Apache server using PUT on Netscape Gold and other programs?

Because you need to install and configure a script to handle the uploaded files. This script is often called a "PUT" handler. There are several available, but they may have security problems. Using FTP uploads may be easier and more secure, at least for now. For more information, see the Apache Week article Publishing Pages with PUT.
