Is anyone here fluent with the usage of the .htaccess file? Is it the way to go to deter search bots or is there a better method? Never mind. I already have a thread about .htaccess here.

I'm a newb when it comes to linux operating systems so I'm attempting to get better through experience. I work for a web development company and we use Ubuntu for our operating systems (the programmers at least). Anyways, I'm trying to install LAMP services and get them working. I have all L.A.M.P. services installed... but Apache2 is giving me a problem. I have an .htaccess file installed in a directory under my document root. But Apache2 is not interpreting it. I have AllowOverride All on but I can't figure it out. I did make a bogus .htaccess file attempting to make apache give me a error, nothing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed AWSTATS on my LAMP 10.04 LTS and followed several tutorials URL...) but I can't secure the folder, either by an alias or by .htaccess. I tried both methods manually and by using Webmin.If you go to the URL www.mywebsite/awstats/awstats.pl it shows up, which is good, but this is the default installation site and anyone who knows awstats could possibly see my stats. The conf folder is /etc/awstats/, and I did an alias for that, then .htacess, but neither worked. With the .htaccess, I would get a password promt but the full stats page was visible behind the password promt, and if you clicked "Cancel" about 20 times or so the promt would go away and the full stats page would be visible.
The actual file that powers awstats is in /usr/share/lib/cgi-bin/awstats.pl, and I also tried an Alias and .htaccess seperately and neither worked.I restarted apache2 after each change and I've searched several forums, but I still can't figure this out.
I have followed the tutorial from this site [URL]. I have changed this file /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and in this file I have changed AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All but still I get:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

I am not sure what happened, but my .htaccess file is no longer working for my 301 redirects. I did have a hard time getting it working a few weeks back (when I first set it up), unfortunately I did not document it well. Main question is for multiple sites getting redirected, do I want the additional sites listed as aliases? My original setup virtual host config listed seven additional hostnames as aliases.
I later had difficulty with google listing these secondary domains within search result and hurting my page rank. So I setup 301 redirects, and from memory, I had to leave the alias names for the .htacces 301 redirect to work. Now it won't work either way. Can anyone tell me if the aliases need to be in place? Do I need to setup individual vhost files and add an .htacces 301 for each? What is the preferred way to do this? I tried reloading apache2 but it did not help.
Permissions for .htacces:
Code:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 eric www-data 866 2010-04-14 12:06 .htaccess
Attaced is my .htaccess. It resides in the site root directory. Also attached is the virtual host config file.
httpd.conf
Code:
NameVirtualHost *
NameVirtualHost *:443
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
RewriteEngine On
I'm still not sure after hours of reading the various how-to's, what should the file permissions be for the .htaccess. I have not performed any updates during the period it was working till now.
I have an existing blog that I migrated to ubuntu server recently. The site was running fine until I transfered it over to ubuntu. I get a 404 error whenever I view pages that is not my index. I believe it has to do with my .htaccess file.

How can I redirect my URL after a site move.I have phpBB forum software installed on a 10.04 server, and I recently moved the forums from mysite.com/forums/ to mysite.com/.

so my server is doing fine, but there is one odd thing I would like to fix. When I start and stop services, the CPU is maxed out for about five seconds each time. The services start the same speed, but it still does this. Small things like lm_sensors don't do this, just things like httpd and sendmail. THis server was upgraded to Fedora 11 with a netinstall CD a few months ago.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are trying to migrate from a centos server to ubuntu server, but we have some problems with an application called Topincs [url].
The installation is quite simple and I did it several time (but with ubuntu it's the first time).
Probably there are some parameters to set that I don't know, but even if the installation works fine and I can see the home page, the application doesn't work because RewriteRules aren't applied.
First I tried to ensure that mod_rewrite works fine and I found a weird situation: rewriterules work if they are in .htaccess but don't work if they are directly in http.conf.
After reading this pdf on top 5 things to log for security, ive decided to attempt this for my webserver. how i might setup some logging systems to do these tasks. Basic things i need to be able to do: Record things like password attempts on htaccess files, from what IP address, and how many attempts there were. Any useful links anyone can think of to get me started? Im a student programmer at university so any programming i should be able to cope fine.

I want to make only one of the directories in the document root secured so that when someone clicks on it, it requires him/her to enter credentials.

When I save this to var/www/ it has no effect (tested on another server but using a shared hosting package it works fine).

If I am running multiple virtual hosts, what happens to the default file? When I put my ip into a browser "http://ip.ip.ip.ip" I get a forbidden message. but all URLs point to where they are supposed to... Maybe its because I don't have an index file in the www folder.. (not at the machine, will try it later to see what happens).

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a site hosted on a cheap hosting company and I need to allow write access to certain users in certain directories, sometimes on a file basis.
Q: how do I do that in a .htaccess file?
I have never used .htaccess although from what I read it looks straightforward but when I try it, I get a "500 server error" even with the example .htaccess file the hosting company suggested I use. (I have informed the host as they require and am awaiting their answer)
The site is automatically set up with a couple of dot file in the root directory when I got it, they are:
.htaccess file
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile "/home/mydomain/www/www/.htpasswd"
AuthName Limited!
require valid-user
Q: Is there in this something overriding my .htaccess in a bad way? (googling for AuthName shed no light on my problem)
.htpasswd
mydomain:$apr1$vcPc9...$kz4vmtvfznKfFmHktN0CI0
Bill:$apr1$C.FLI...$KmvqrHFt6i/.rMhfREtRV0
I added the user Bill, apparently successfully, the first line and .htaccess were set up by the host.
After moving a website folder on my local development machine to another drive, then moving it back, I got a 403 error. Most of this problem had probably to do with rights that got messed up. After deleting the code and restoring it from SVN, the rights seemed allright. The error stayed however.
The setup is a bit complex, as follows:
I have Ubuntu 10.4 as development machine, trying to mimic the server as much as possible We use Eclipse + SVN and I create all projects in a local folder under my user account In /var/www-vhosts I create folders for each vhost, like this one: test.localhost test.local/index.php: includes the index file of the project
test.local/.htaccess is a dynamic link to the htaccess file in a project subfolder
I get the following error in the apache error log:
The problem seems to be the .htaccess file, or the link to it. When I empty the htaccess, nothing changes When I remove the link, the index-include produces some output (in the apache error log) When I remove the link and replace it with the actual file, I get another error:
I have a folder on my server i want to protect with http authentication but i have problem. i created a password htpasswd -c .htpasswd razzera
then i created a .htaccess file in the folder and added
AuthType Basic
AuthName "Restricted Files"
# (Following line optional)
AuthBasicProvider file
AuthUserFile /.htpasswd
Require user razzera
but when i go tho the folder it wont request any login details. why ??
I have recently merged two Joomla 1.0 sites I ran into one. I imported the articles I wanted to keep to the new site, and I have the old site's domain pointing as an alias at the new site. The new site is www.theouthousers.com . The old site was www.bludblood.com .
I also have the core SEF URLs on, using the htaccess.txt file that came with Joomla.
I have one writer for the old site who linked to his articles in various places, so I am trying to set up redirects for him so that he doesn't have to change all of his links.
For instance, I need something like:
http://www.bludblood.com/joomla/inde...d=25&Itemid=51
To redirect to the equivalent location on the new site:
[url]
And I also need specific links like:
[url]
To redirect to their new counterparts:
[url]
Keeping in mind that www.bludblood.com is now an alias of www.theouthousers.com, is there any way to do this? I have been trying with rewrite rules and redirects, and cannot seem to achieve the desired effect.
Tried various versions of:
Code:
Redirect [url] [url]
With the http, without, as regexps, as 301s, as permanents, etc, and it just will not work. Also tried as RewriteRule.
I had a problem with apache2 and getting .htaccess working. I have done some things and i believe its working the ErrorDocument command is anyway. I believe there may be some problems with the rewrites though.Im trying to take a urlhttp://localhost/showthread/123and make it display whats on http://localhost/index.php?showthread=123The rewrite rule is Quote:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^showthread/([^/.]+)/?$ index.php?showthread=$1 [L]
