Hi all,
Many thanks to Christopher Ostmo who solved this one. The reason why it
couldn't read .htaccess was because "other" people didn't have read
permission on the directory that contained the file. An ls -la looked like:
[root@gemini squirrelmail]# ls -la
total 128
drwxr-x--- 14 squirrel nobody 4096 Jul 2 09:48 .
-rw-r--r-- 1 squirrel nobody 87 Jun 23 10:53 .htaccess
chmod'ing it to give other people read and execute access on the directory
fixed this, but revealed another, deeper problem... (was that the force I
felt, or a butterfly in china?)
Now attempting to access the page returns a:
[Wed Jul 4 10:00:30 2001] [error] [client 198.142.14.193] script not found
or unable to stat: /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/php
which is entirely inappropriate, as the php app in question doesn't live in
/usr/local/apache/anywhere
I'm guessing that this has something to do with a line in the apache config
that says:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/local/apache/cgi-bin/"
for the general server config. There are no script aliases for the virtual
in question.
The virtual doesn't have anything odd defined in it - just the server name,
location of files, and where to log to.
<VirtualHost 198.142.14.194>
ServerName webmail.faredge.com.au
ServerAdmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
DocumentRoot /var/qmail/squirrelmail
ErrorLog /var/log/apache/squirrelmail-error_log
CustomLog /var/log/apache/squirrelmail-access_log common
</VirtualHost>
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Chris Herrmann
