Hello all, I have an apache manual directory located in /usr/local/share/doc/apache2 which I'm trying to link from my local website. I symlink the folder to a local folder in my home directory and all I'm getting is "directory index forbidden by rule" when I looked inside the log file. The problem it seems to be on the extra filename tacked on the htmls file ie: index.html.en, index.html.ja and all. I tried plain old index.html and all are fine.
I tried adding the line AddOutputFilter Includes html on the directory where the symlink and the actual folder but still no go. It only happens in virtual host context, if I put the <Directory> statement in global context, it work. The only caveat is that I have to put an alias; or else there' no way I'm able to reference the folder. Here's the directives that I put in the VHost context; <Directory "/home/ihsan/www/data/freebsd/docs"> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews AddOutputFilter Includes html AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> <Directory "/usr/local/share/doc/apache2"> Options Indexes MultiViews AddOutputFilter Includes html AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> I don't want to refer the files in global aliasing/directory context. I only want to refer them from my local directory. I have a bunch of html docs located in /usr/local/share/docs which I symlinked just fine and apache is the only misbehaving kid on the block. Hope someone can help. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
