Hello to all, in https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44262 I was told to ask about this issue on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Long talk short (i gues my last mail was to long to be comprehensible ;) In apache 1.3/2.0 there was no selection of whitch options can or can't be set in .htacess files. At some point in 2.2.x AllowOverride Options=[option1,...] was introduced. From my point needlessly it brakes compatibility previous apache versions, because now AllowOverride Options only allows to set *'All' options whith isn't really all because 'All' laves out OPT_INCNOEXEC OPT_SYM_OWNER OPT_MULTI !, AllowOverride All allows these 3 extra options just as 'AllowOverride Options=' whitch should be a syntax error but leaves overridable options unaltered and defaults overridables (from the same patch) are OPT_ALL + OPT_INCNOEXEC + OPT_SYM_OWNER OPT_MULTI. *) 'All' like All in Options All whitch really isn't all options AllowOverride | 1.3/20 | 2.2.x -----------------------+------------------------------------------------------- Options | All + Multiviews and 2 others | only All Options= | n/a | All + Multiviews and 2 others If it's designed to work this way there should be something in the docs but then what does Options= mean ? -- Michał Grzędzicki
