Hi, I have installed Apache2 and not able to display test HTML pages. I did research on other posted threads but didn’t get good help.
**
I created a test1.html in ‘/srv/www/htdocs’.
Did ‘http://localhost’ and got ‘Error403’**
Here is the default-server.conf’
Global configuration that will be applicable for all virtual hosts, unless
deleted here, or overriden elswhere.
DocumentRoot “/srv/www/htdocs”
Configure the DocumentRoot
<Directory “/srv/www/htdocs”>
# Possible values for the Options directive are “None”, “All”,
# or any combination of:
# Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
#
# Note that “MultiViews” must be named explicitly — “Options All”
# doesn’t give it to you.
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please see
# core - Apache HTTP Server
# for more information.
Options None
# AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
# It can be “All”, “None”, or any combination of the keywords:
# Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
AllowOverride None
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Aliases: aliases can be added as needed (with no limit). The format is
Alias fakename realname
Note that if you include a trailing / on fakename then the server will
require it to be present in the URL. So “/icons” isn’t aliased in this
example, only “/icons/”. If the fakename is slash-terminated, then the
realname must also be slash terminated, and if the fakename omits the
trailing slash, the realname must also omit it.
We include the /icons/ alias for FancyIndexed directory listings. If you
do not use FancyIndexing, you may comment this out.
Alias /icons/ “/usr/share/apache2/icons/”
<Directory “/usr/share/apache2/icons”>
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ScriptAlias: This controls which directories contain server scripts.
ScriptAliases are essentially the same as Aliases, except that
documents in the realname directory are treated as applications and
run by the server when requested rather than as documents sent to the client.
The same rules about trailing “/” apply to ScriptAlias directives as to
Alias.
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ “/srv/www/cgi-bin/”
“/srv/www/cgi-bin” should be changed to whatever your ScriptAliased
CGI directory exists, if you have that configured.
<Directory “/srv/www/cgi-bin”>
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -Includes
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
UserDir: The name of the directory that is appended onto a user’s home
directory if a ~user request is received.
To disable it, simply remove userdir from the list of modules in APACHE_MODULES
in /etc/sysconfig/apache2.
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
# Note that the name of the user directory (“public_html”) cannot simply be
# changed here, since it is a compile time setting. The apache package
# would have to be rebuilt. You could work around by deleting
# /usr/sbin/suexec, but then all scripts from the directories would be
# executed with the UID of the webserver.
UserDir public_html
# The actual configuration of the directory is in
# /etc/apache2/mod_userdir.conf.
Include /etc/apache2/mod_userdir.conf
# You can, however, change the ~ if you find it awkward, by mapping e.g.
# http://www.example.com/users/karl-heinz/ → /home/karl-heinz/public_html/
#AliasMatch ^/users/([a-zA-Z0-9-_.])/?(.) /home/$1/public_html/$2
</IfModule>
Include all *.conf files from /etc/apache2/conf.d/.
This is mostly meant as a place for other RPM packages to drop in their
configuration snippet.
You can comment this out here if you want those bits include only in a
certain virtual host, but not here.
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/*.conf
The manual… if it is installed (’?’ means it won’t complain)
Include /etc/apache2/conf.d/apache2-manual?conf
I haven’t made any changes to the 'httpd.conf’
Please suggest something…
Thanks
