Hello guys, I'm using CPanel with Cloudlinux (cageFS, LVE, etc..) I need to execute a PHP file who will be the same for every hosting account, so this file is shared on a different folder, outside from /home/clientAccount, I want to use an Apache Alias for that. Example : https://mywebsite45.com/api_test_xxxxx/show-error.php?uid=184715635058e74417d9084559844178&v=0.4.89 https://anotherwebsite.com/api_test_xxxxx/show-error.php?uid=184715635058e74417d9084559844178&v=0.4.89 I added an Apache alias on "Pre VirtualHost Include" Alias "/api_test_xxxxx" "/opt/myfolder/myfolderapi/" So after restarting Apache, my alias works well because instead of getting a 404 I got a 501 Not Implemented with this message : Not supported I would like to know how I can allow Apache to execute my PHP script, which configuration I'm missing ? I'm using PHP with CGI.

  Hello, I don't believe this action is recommended due to security restrictions. Instead, you should upload a separate copy of this PHP file to each account, or setup a cron job that populates an updated copy of this PHP file to each account on a regular basis. Thank you.
