Hi,

I am running wordpress for ecommerce using httpd-2.4.12 on my Ubuntu Server 12.04.5. The problem I have is some unknown clients received the message that reads "You don't have permission to access the product on this server" when they were trying to access to the Product page to make a purchase.

When I tested on all of my devices, I did not have any issue with accessing to the page. I know that the page is a secure page with https.

I've looked into the apache logs file and found nothing that's related to 404 or 403 errors there.

Below is what I have configured for my httpd.conf.
Code:
...
<Directory />
    AllowOverride none
    Require all denied
</Directory>
<Directory "/home/apache/htdocs">
    Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Require all granted
</Directory>
<Directory "/home/apache/htdocs/wpcommerce">
    AllowOverride All
    Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks
    Require all granted
</Directory>


Also, in my httpd-vhost.conf, I've got
Code:
NameVirtualHost 59.161.78.53:80

  <VirtualHost 59.161.78.53:80>
        ServerName test
        DocumentRoot /home/apache/htdocs/wpcommerce
        ServerAdmin test

        ErrorLog /home/apache/logs/wpcommerce_error.log
        LogLevel warn
        CustomLog logs/wpcommerce_combined.log combined

        RewriteEngine on
        RewriteOptions inherit

# Force users to use a secure SSL-connection
        RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
        RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}

        <Files ~ "^\.ht">
            Require all granted
        </Files>

   <Directory "/home/apache/htdocs/wpcommerce">
        Options -Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
        AllowOverride All
        Require all granted
   </Directory>

  </VirtualHost>


I have checked permissions by running:
chown -R apache:apache /home/apache

I'm not sure if I have configured my both configuration files correctly.

Thank you in advance

does your server run as the user apache, not www or www-data?

Yes, that's correct. The user and group for apache is apache and apache respectively. Is that the right thing to do? or should I change it to apache:nogroup?

Thank you for your reply.
