 Posted: Tue Nov 04, 2003 6:27 am Post subject: What is it with Apache2 and public_html? |
 |
|
I've read over a half dozen posts here regarding problems with Apache2 and public_html - all the same error I'm getting - and none of the solutions work for me. When I go to http://localhost/~user/, I get a 403 error, and a 403 ErrorDocument error. I can't seem to get it to work. So hopefully someone who knows Apache2's quirks can help out a little. Here's what I've got:
Apache2 running as apache.apache.
My user's public_html permissions are 755.
In my commonapache2.conf, I have:
| Code: | <Directory /home/*/public_html>
AllowOverride All
Options MultiViews +Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks
<IfModule mod_access.c>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</IfModule>
</Directory> |
I've tried changing "Order deny,allow" to "Order allow,deny", and I've tried explicitly putting in an entry for my particular username. After restarting Apache and reloading localhost/~username/, I still get the same error message. I can't seem to get it to give me access to my home directory over Apache.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

What does /var/log/apache2/error_log have to say about it?

As far as I know, permissions are set properly. Maybe I'm missing something, though.

| Check to make sure the apache user/group has read access to /home/user. Correct permissions on /home/user/public_html may be right, but apache will be blue in the face if it can access /home/user. |

Thanks, that did it for me. I figured it'd be something goofy. :-/ Much appreciated.

Actually execute access will do, then other users cannot list files and see what you have in your home dir
