Posted: Tue Aug 31, 2004 2:06 pm Post subject: Simple apache permission problem |
|
|
Currently: http://aeon.servequake.com has subdirectories with files in those subdirectories. For some reason even though all the permissions are set to read access for owner group and others (755) the files are only accessable if the full path to the file is specified.
Eg: http://aeon.servequake.com/mda/picture.jpg
I would like it so that /mda/ can be browsed without having to specify a file first. The owner of the folder is root.
As ive said, im sure this is something very simple to fix but i cant make out what it is.
The current permission error is:
Code: | Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /mda/ on this server.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/2.0.48 (Gentoo/Linux) Server at aeon.servequake.com Port 80 |
Any help greatly appreciated!!

Hi
You need the apache directive 'Options Indexes'.
Uncomment the line in your apache config:
Code: | LoadModule autoindex_module modules/mod_autoindex.so |
and in the vhost section enter
bye

Maxmara, hey, thanks for your reply.
This is my configuration:

### Global Configuration
###
# Splitting up apache2.conf into two files makes it easier to support
# multiple configurations on the same serer. In commonapache2.conf
# you keep directives that apply to all implementations and in this
# file you keep server-specific directives. While we don't yet have
# multiple configurations out-of-the-box, this allows us to do that
# in the future easily. (PERLPROXIED *ahem*)
#
# For Apache2 we load all conf files in conf/modules.d
Include conf/modules.d/*.conf
Include conf/commonapache2.conf
###
### IP Address/Port
###
#BindAddress *
Listen 80
###
### Log configuration Section
###
<IfModule mod_log_config.c>
#Single logfile with access, agent and referer information
#This is the default, if vlogs are not defined for the main server
CustomLog logs/access_log combined env=!VLOG
#If VLOG is defined in conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf, we use this entry
#CustomLog "|/usr/sbin/apache2splitlogfile" vhost env=VLOG
</IfModule>
###
### Virtual Hosts
###
# We include different templates for Virtual Hosting. Have a look in the
# vhosts directory and modify to suit your needs.
Include conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf
#Include conf/vhosts/dynamic-vhosts.conf
#Include conf/vhosts/virtual-homepages.conf

Unfortunately im still having the same problems. If you still happen to be around any chance you can throw some more ideas at me? (by the way, the first line was already uncommented.. all i did was add the option indexes part)
Thanks

You need execute permissions on the directory as well -- do you have those? |

You could try to replace the 'Options Indexes' with this
Code: | <Directory "/var/www/localhost/htdocs/mda">
Options Indexes
Allow from all
</Directory> |

I think your snippet of code did it.
THanks to all those who helped.. i tried everything suggested in the order it came and the piece of code that seemed to do the trick is here incase anyone has this problem again and needs confirmation that it works!
Code: | <Directory "/var/www/localhost/htdocs/mda">
Options Indexes
Allow from all
</Directory> |

Another solution:
In /etc/apache2/conf/commonapache2.conf change
Code: | Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews | to
Code: | Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews |
Easy peasy, lemon squeezy, as they say. |
