Topic: Alias Issue

[jamganz]

I currently have an alias setup that we use to store attachments on a network drive. It is a network share that allows the machine account read and write access. We are in the process of moving the attachments to a SharePoint document library. I have attempted to change the alias from

Alias /attachmenttest/ //mydomain.com/cmic/CmicAttachments/Test2006/

to

Alias /attachmenttest/ //server.mydomain.com/DocLib/cmic_attach/

I have granted read/write permissions to the new network location, and I am able to browse to it from the server. However, when I try to access the alias, I receive a 404 error. When I look at the apache logs, I see the following message:

[Mon Jul 20 16:21:08 2009] [error] [client 10.10.10.121] [ecid: 1248124868:10.10.10.169:5300:6980:2,0] (22)Invalid argument: cannot read directory for multi: //server.mydomain.com/doclib/cmic_attach/4344735/420391/0/

[Mon Jul 20 16:21:08 2009] [error] [client 10.10.10.121] [ecid: 1248124868:10.10.10.169:5300:6980:2,0] File does not exist: //server.mydomain.com/doclib/cmic_attach/4344735/420391/0/gp ghost records.pdf

I have also attempted to change DocLib in the alias to all lower case, but it still didn't work. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks.

When you run apache as a service apache can't access network. The system user is a limited user.

You can try to run apache with a different user.

That worked. Thanks
