You have to configure your suExec document root separately.  It has
nothing to do with virtual host document roots in your configuration file.
See the suExec documentation: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/suexec.html and
for help with suExec, try the Apache users' mailing list:
http://httpd.apache.org/userslist.html

FWIW, the recommended way to run Freeside is with a separate, mod_perl
enabled instance of Apache.  1.4.0 will be mod_perl only.

complaining that the cgi file in the browse subdirectory isn't in the document root.  This isn't making sense to me and I'm guessing that I've probably missed some trivial configuration parameter somewhere.   Any pointers in the right direction would be g
