[mapserver-users] seemingly sucessfully compiled mapserver 7.0.1 on ubuntu 14.04 - but NO - gives binary output ?

oops, here is the correct Apache syntax:

         ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/public_html/cgi-bin/
         <Directory /var/www/public_html/cgi-bin/>
           Options ExecCGI
           SetHandler cgi-script
         </Directory>
