Yes, of course it is !

As I mentioned before, everything works just fine when I do not use
the ScriptAliasMatch directive.

However, I really would like to use the ScriptAliasMatch directive in order
to shorten/cleanup the urls

When using ScriptAliasMatch it is not possible to access anything at all
except the paths mentioned in the Alias directives.

A simple www.mydomain.com/index.html results in a 404 error.

According to the ScriptAliasMatch setting it should serve the
www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/mycatalog/index.html page

Are there any requirements or restrictions using the ScriptAliasMatch?




Best regards,

Ton
