Did you actually rename "qgis_mapserver.fgci.exe" to remove the ".exe" extension? If not, try this as it worked for me.<br>

I have been spending days trying to start the “Apache OSGeo4W Web Server” on a Win7 Professional SP 1. I have no experience with Apache. I have followed the tutorial steps from the QGIS Web Server wiki and Anita Graser's how-to and also other forum advice. This has led me to upgrading from QGIS 2.4 to 2.6, then to QGIS 2.6 64bit. Lastly I upgraded Apache from 2.2 32bit to 2.4 64bit. I finally get “It works!” from localhost/ using any combination of 32/64bit QGIS or Apache. Trying “<a href="http://localhost/OSGeo4W64/apps/qgis/bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities" target="_blank">http://localhost/OSGeo4W64/apps/qgis/bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetCapabilities</a>” results in “Not Found The requested URL /OSGeo4W/apps/qgis/bin/qgis_mapserv.fcgi was not found on this server.” This is the error I get no matter what the combination of Apache and QGIS installs – and regardless of including “.exe” with the file name.<br>
<br>
Some recommended actions I took may be obsolete with QGIS 2.6 or Apache 2.4. I am trying to reduce my variables here and need help focusing on where the problems are: The major adaptations I did, beyond updating .conf files to new Apache 2.4 format were:<br>
<br>
1) Disabling references to fcgid and replacing them with cgi (in .conf files). On newer forum advice, I reverted back to fcgi.<br>
<br>
2) Replacing backslashes with forward in file names as per Apache admonitions. My confusion: original osgeo installs and forum examples have hybrid examples like "C:\OSGeo4W/apps/ka-map-1.0". Always with the backslash after C: and no documentation in sight as to the advantages of doing this, if any.<br>
<br>
3) Following a forum advice to copy files from apps\Python27\Lib to apps\qgis\bin.<br>
<br>
4) Upgrading to 64 bit Apache required copying application-specific .conf files from OSGeo4W\httpd.d directory to OSGeo4W64\httpd.d and updating the terminology.<br>
<br>
5) In the URL for qgis_mapserver.fgci.exe, replacing “localhost” with 127.0.0.1 or with my machine's tcp/ip #.<br>
<br>
6) Using the latest version of mod_fcgid.so from Apache lounge.<br>
<br>
Variables in httpd.conf appear to point to the correct directories/files. I think relevant settings are:<br>
<br>
ServerRoot "C:/OSGeo4W64/Apache24"<br>

Question: Does qgis_mapserv.fgci.exe return good debugging info if run from command line?<br>
Question: What is the format for passing parameters to qgis_mapserv.fgci.exe in the command line?<br>
Question: In Apache .conf files, can quotes in path names be dropped if there are no spaces?<br>
<br>
The Real Question: Why does my browser not find qgis_mapserver.fgci.exe?<br>
<br>
I am grasping for clues that a seasoned eye would see. Dennis<br>
