Hi all,
First time writing an .htaccess, so...
I try to allow indexing of a dir and later one adding a password for the specific dir. I herefor am writing an .htaccess file.
The server I'm working on denies indexing of dirs (I think) yet not the use of .htaccess files in itself. I make that statement for it does not return an internal error when adding the following lines in my htaccess file in the dir I would like to allow indexing for:
| Code: | <Files index.html>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Files> |
I do get an internal error when I use the following:
| Code: | <Files index.html>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Files>
<Directory>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</Directory> |
I used the above for they are very simple statements and I am merely checking whether the .htaccess file works.
I presume that this has something to do with a deny in some config file on the server. I checked the apache2.conf and modifying that one did not seem to do much. Maybe I modified it incorrectly, however...
I also think it might have something to do with the 000-default file (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/) for their it is stated the following:
| Code: | ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/>
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride Limit
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory> |
Which I presume must become a +Indexes. But the file 000-default is a symbolic link and I don't know where it links to and where the file can be found. Or should I not touch this one and add a new file linking to the dir...
See, a lot of questions and help is very very much appreciated![/code] |

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
No Directory Indexes, No .htaccess support.
AllowOverride None
With that override of None, if you place a .htaccess file in there, it should 403 on everything.
<Directory /var/www/>
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride Limit
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
No Directory Indexes, but the 'Limit' override will allow you to use .htaccess files to limit access in that directory and anything below it.
<Files index.html>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Files>
With an override of 'Limit', if this is in your htaccess file, all it will do is deny access to this one file. |
