Hello Apache Users, I'm using Apache 2.0.55
I'm trying to have apache follow a symlink that is outside of the documentroot tree. The requests would look like http://servername/aliastodirectory/subdirectory So, I have an alias pointing to the directory: Alias /aliastodirectory/ /path/to/directory And then I was trying to use a Directory directive to allow the symlink: <Directory /path/to/directory> Options +FollowSymLinks </Directory> But I'm still getting a Symlink not allowed error when I try to access the subdirectory, which is a symlink. One caveat to this is that the directory which the subdirectory points to is also a symlink. So the symlinks look like this: /path/to/directory/subdirectory -> /path/to/anotherdirectory/subdirectory /path/to/anotherdirectory/subdirectory -> /path/to/finaldirectory/subdirectory Is my problem due to the fact that there are two levels of symlinks? And if so, is there a way around that? Thanks, Kristina -- "In most cases, people, even wicked people, are far more naive and simple-hearted than one generally assumes.
