I have Apache 1.3.6 installed and working on RH 6.0, but am having
problems setting up Aliases to work.
I can access any documents under /usr/local/apache/htdocs, but if I give
Alias /xyz/ "/root/xyz"
<Directory "/root/xyz">
All the usual options like options All, All from all etc
</Directory>
I just cant get it to serve up documents from /root/xyz inspite of giving
full access to
the directory.
If I give an Alias where the data directory is under /usr/local/apache, I
can view
the directory, but when I click on index.html it gives me an error.
(BTW index.html is set as the default document)
Also if I create public_html direcory under my home directory and
try to access /~user, I get an error saying that I dont have permission to
access
/~user (BTW It does not give me a document not found error). But I have the
default
setting for /*/public_html also set in the <Directory> tag.
I dont think I faced this problem with the older version of apache.
What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks
Shahed.
