Hello,
I have a webserver up and running on my Linux box
(Mandrake 7.1). My domain name is www.digitalpalace.net I am trying to
give my user his own webspace like www.digitalpalace.net/~user .
I have copied the httpd folder in the home directory into the users
directory. I have also tried creating a folder called public_html and
putting the index.html file inside that. When I did these things I
get an 'access forbiden' error when I point my browser to the
website. I have also changed the permissions on both the public_html
folder and the index.html file. The only thing I can think of is
there is a configuration in the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file. Below is
a clipping of my httpd.conf file. It looks good to
me.
If anyone knows how to give users their own
webspace or what I am doing wrong please help me out.
#----------------- Name Space and Server Settings
---------------------
# In this section, you define the name space that users see of your http # server. This file also defines server settings which affect how requests are # serviced, and how results should be formatted. # This used to be a separate file. Now part of httpd.conf # (srm.conf -- Apache HTTP server configuration file) # # DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will
serve your
# documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but # symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations. DocumentRoot /home/httpd/html
# UserDir: The name of the directory which is
appended onto a user's home
# directory if a ~user request is recieved. UserDir public_html
# DirectoryIndex: Name of the file or files to use
as a pre-written HTML
# directory index. Separate multiple entries with spaces. DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml
index.cgi Default.htm default.h
# FancyIndexing is whether you want fancy directory
indexing or standard
