Apache gives permission errors...

[Detegr]

Hi. My computer is running Apache/2.0.54 @ Gentoo, but when i'm trying to open http://myip.here/~username it gives me following error:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /~user/ on this server.

I'm tried to change chmods/chowns, groups etc. but with no luck.
But: I can access to files in /~user/file.txt, but not in /~user/ If i put index.html file in public_html, that also works. Then i can see index.html when i go to http://myip.here/~username

Apache test page in http://myip.here works good also.

At this moment, chowns:

/home/user = 777
/home/user/public_html = 777

One thing i noticed, i don't have httpd.conf anywhere, is that necessary? I tried to google similar errors, but answers didn't help me.


Thanks.

It's covered in /etc/conf.d/apache2

In the APACHE2_OPTS variable, you need to add "-D USERDIR". Note that the -D is need for each option, so you might have something like APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D USERDIR"

Thanks for the answer, put USERDIR in there, but with no help :\ Still same error.

/etc/conf.d/apache2 :

APACHE2_OPTS="-D SSL -D FASTCGI -D DEFAULT_VHOST -D USERDIR"


Any other ideas?
