Alfredo,

  make merged.htm a symlink to the actual file not the subdir and things
would be slightly better.
  You may be able to make nobody_23-Apr-2002_7042 a link to the real
directory where the files are...

  Apache is trying to execute a directory, for some reason apache is trying
to run things than end in "htm"... what do you have in your ScriptAlias
setting for apache... it sounds like the place where you have the .htm file
is inside one of them.
  Is the real .htm file something you want executed or not?


from Debian apache config files...
# ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
# ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
# documents in the realname directory are treated as applications and
# run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the client.
# The same rules about trailing "/" apply to ScriptAlias directives as to
# Alias.

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
