It is not working for me. I´ve taken two hours trying all posible
combinations but I can´t make it work. Where it is supposed to be the
{downloads} directory? Under the web directory /var/www? In my catalog root?
Do I have to create it first or not?

All I get is a permission error when processing the page and this in my
error.log:

"localhost.localdomain bxVkzoVa:localhost.localdomain -
[16/mayo/2002:16:33:16 +0200] reports /cgi-bin/reports/process.html Runtime
error: mkdir /tmp_download: Permiso denegado at (eval 100) line 18"

I´ve tried many things with permissions but nothing make it work. Can anyone
help me?

Thank you.
