Hi,
I am new to Apache configuration. I read & googled about Apache directives yesterday, basically allow,deny, but that's it.
On my hosted website, I need to enable access to two index.php files, one in the document root, the other in a subfolder of document root.
The directives (part of them suggested by webhosting support) are:
Document Root
| Code: | <FilesMatch "^\.htaccess">
order deny,allow
deny from all
</FilesMatch>
<FilesMatch "index[0-9]?\.php$">
order allow,deny
allow from all
</FilesMatch> |
Subfolder of Document Root:
| Code: | <Files "index.php">
order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
Allow from <IP Address>
</Files> |
However, the main .htaccess file invalidates the one in the subfolder - I cannot access the index.php in the subfolder (I see a blank webpage in Mozilla Firefox).
Could you briefly explain what the 2-nd directive block in the main .htaccess file does ? What needs to be changed as to make the subfolder index.php accessible ?
Question #2:
What type of RegExp does Apache use ? PERL, ... ?
Where can I read a good tutorial or examples on this part of Apache configuration directives ?
Thanks ! |

If you see a blank page and not a 403 then it probably is working, but everything else is denied supporting that index.php page. Check the php_error.log is probably a good thing to do as it might give you hints as to what is wrong.
Try with in simple text file where php is not involved and see if you see the text in said text file. |
