 |
|
I want to disable php except for some users
So, deny it on the top-level
| Code: |
<Directory /var/www/>
Order allow,deny
allow from all
<FilesMatch "(?i)\.(php|php3?|phtml)$">
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
</FilesMatch>
</Directory>
|
and allow it on a specific directory
| Code: |
<Directory /var/www/XYZ>
<FilesMatch "(?i)\.(php|php3?|phtml)$">
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All
</FilesMatch>
</Directory>
|
This works!
But: for some directories I want to enable Option Indexes with the module 'dir' and DirectoryIndex
| Code: |
<Directory /var/www/ABC>
Option Indexes
</Directory>
|
This doesn't work because I use the dir module who tries index.php --> access denied on ABC
2 bad solutions:
1) don't add index.php in DirectoryIndex
2) enable php on the directory which needs Indexes
| Code: |
<Directory /var/www/ABC>
Option Indexes
<FilesMatch "(?i)\.(php|php3?|phtml)$">
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from All
</FilesMatch>
</Directory>
|
Now the question: who has a better solution to
- disable php globally
- enable php on some directories
- enable Indexes on some directories without the need to enable php
- use the module dir (DirectoryIndex index.html Index.php)
Quite a puzzle!
I use
- apache 2.2 |

It can be a lot easier with the use of
php_admin_value engine Off
or
php_admin_value engine On
Note that this will give a 500 error if PHP is not installed as mod_php. Wrap it in <IfModule mod_php5.c> ... </IfModule> |

I think that is unsafe. When you surf to a php-file in a protected directory, you can read the source (passwords!).
In an ideal world there should not be php-code in a protected directory, but we can't control all our users. |
