I installed bugzilla and added the following code to httpd.conf to access it from my browser

<Directory /var/www/html/bugzilla>
  AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
  Options +Indexes +ExecCGI
  DirectoryIndex index.cgi
  AllowOverride Limit
</Directory>

But if I try to access it from browser I'm getting the following error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Anything useful in the apache error log? The cgi script is probably erroring out before giving Apache any html to display. – Jeff Schaller May 31 at 10:35

The issue was with .htaccess file in bugzilla directory.

Added the following code to the file and restarted the apache,

<FilesMatch (\.pm|\.pl|\.tmpl|localconfig.*)$>
    Deny from all
</FilesMatch>

Now it is working fine.
