 * Request the TWiki distribution (in Unix ZIP format) from <http://TWiki.SourceForge.net/download.html> .
 * Create directory `/home/httpd/twiki` and unzip the TWiki distribution to this directory.
-* The `twiki/bin` directory of TWiki must be set as a cgi-bin directory. Add `/home/httpd/twiki/bin` to `/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf` with only `ExecCGI` option.
-* The `twiki/pub` directory of TWiki must be set so that it is visible as a URL. Add `/home/httpd/twiki` to `/etc/httpd/conf/access.conf` with normal access options (copy from /home/httpd/html).
-* Now add `ScriptAlias` for `/twiki/bin` and `Alias` for `/twiki` to `/etc/httpd/conf/srm-conf` . Example: <br />`ScriptAlias /twiki/bin/ /home/httpd/twiki/bin/`<br />`Alias /twiki/ /home/httpd/twiki/`<br />**_Note:_** The `ScriptAlias` **must** come before the `Alias` in Apache, otherwise it will fail to correctly set up `/twiki/bin/` , due to the fact that it sees that as being just another subdirectory of the `/twiki/` alias.

 * Restart Apache by `/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S85httpd restart` .
 * Test if the `twiki/bin` directory is cgi-enabled:
   * Enter the URL of that directory into your browser ( `http://your.domain.com/twiki/bin` ). It is not set correctly as cgi-bin in case you get something like `"Index of /twiki/bin"` . It is OK if you get a message like `"Forbidden. You don't have permission to access /twiki/bin/ on this server."`
