[Xymon] Need help with upgrade from 4.3.17 to 4.3.20

[J.C. Cleaver]

Hmm. So far, the only way I've been able to reproduce this is by replacing
the ScriptAlias directives with mere Alias's in the xymon.conf apache
config.

Has there been any change in the path you've used for the CGI directory
since the previous version, or is there any chance that another Alias line
is taking precedence over the ScriptAlias?

Do you see anything in the apache access/error logs that indicates an error?
