Bug#620759:
Hi, I am the author of mod_chroot. Starting from 2.2.10, Apache features native chroot support. As Squeeze doesn't ship earlier Apache versions, I would recommend removing mod_chroot package altogether. regards, -- Marek Gutkowski -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-apache-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Did you have to adjust the configuration? > Let me explain what happened. With mod_chroot, the apache did the chroot twice and (in my case) the original DocumentRoot then has to be / This is because in lenny my DocumentRoot was the directory /var/www inside the chroot (/var/www/ too). So the chain is /var/www (first chroot) -> /var/www/var/www/ (first and second chroot) and then my files are _not _ found under a third /var/www directory (this would happen when the DocumentRoot is set to /var/www) but /. Without mod_chroot the apache changes once to /var/www and my files are found unter the DocumentRoot /var/www as expected. So the mod_chroot is working absolutely fine under squeeze. But together with the builtin chroot the behavior is unexpected and confusing. Yes, one must change the DocumentRoot when using mod_chroot ... and maybe some directories in the filesystem because of the double chroot. But beside of this the mod_chroot is working perfect. I do not think that mod_chroot needs to be removed from squeeze but the documentation in /usr/share/doc/ mod-chroot-common/ should give a hint about this possible trouble source.

If mod_chroot is not compatible with squeeze's apache, we should have it removed from squeeze. Did everything work after you removed mod_chroot?

Bug#620759: apache2: apache does chroot twice with mod_chroot
Package: apache2.2-common Version: 2.2.16-6+squeeze1 Severity: normal I have apache2 running chrooted in /var/www since lenny. After upgrading to squeeze I got permanent errors about not finding /var. After all I tried and copied and hoped to find it out and finally I created a var in /var/www/var/www and apache did not complain anymore. So I guess the apache father does chroot into /var/www and every child does chroot into the chrootet /var/www again (and this is really /var/www/var/www). This is really strange and surely a bug.
