cgi as directory index?

I'm sure this one is really simple, but I don't know what I am doing
wrong. I have the following config block in my httpd.conf file:

ScriptAlias /abc /var/www/abc/cgi-bin

Options +ExecCGI
allow from all
directoryindex abc.cgi


if I go to http:///abc/abc.cgi, it works fine. However, if I
just go to http:///abc, I get a "Forbidden" message. The
error log shows "attempt to invoke directory as script: /var/www/abc/
cgi-bin". I want to be able to just type http:///abc to get
to the script. What am I missing here? Thanks.

Why don't you do

ScriptAlias /abc /var/www/abc/cgi-bin/abc.cgi

?

Because I didn't know you could do that. I thought aliases had to
point to directories :) Knew it would be something simple :-P
