Server :: Apache - A Default Index.cgi When Directory Is Browsed ?

May 20, 2010

I've set up Apache once or twice in the past, but my memory is escaping me on something simple. This time the OS is Cent5 with Apache/2.2.3

When a user browses to: [url] <nothing else> I get as expected, a '403 'You don't have permission to access' because directory browsing is off for obvious reasons :-) If I enter the full URL to the script: [url]it works as expected. No issues there.

What I would *like* to do (and I'm sure I've done this before) is to set the cgi-bin up so if someone leaves off the script name: http://host.name/cgi-bin/ it serves "index.cgi" pretty much in the same way that if you browse to the root http directory, you index.html||php would normally serve. I just can't remember how to achieve this simple thing and I'm starting to wonder 'am I mad? - Did I do this before?'.

Sanity check - index.cgi exists and runs if you call it directly thus:

Code:

I have added:

Code:

That made no difference.

Tried:

Code:

For good measure, but that made no difference - and even

Code:

and no amount of playing with 'Options Indexes || -Indexes || +Indexes' helped me.

Like I say, I'm sure I've done it before (on Debian/Ubuntu) without the need to start playing with redirects or .htaccess - but I'll be blowed if I can remember how.

Ubuntu :: Apache Won't Serve Up Index.php

Jan 13, 2010

I recently restarted my Apache server to change the max upload from 5mb to 25mb. Once Apache restarted I tryed to go to my website via url www.website.com and a blank page with this source code:

<html>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">

I also have two demo websites that I am running and when I go to there url's www.website.com/demosite apache will serve up the index.php

I didn't change anything but the max_upload in the apache2.conf and restarted.

Fedora Servers :: Firefox Can't See Apache Index.html File

Aug 25, 2011

My setup is two laptops connected by crossover cable. One runs Windows xp the other Fedora 13. Neither is connected to internet. I'm using a subnet of 192.168.1.x On Fedora eth0 is up, apache runs because it creates pidfile. Everything pings fine. Windows xp ip pings fine from command line. Gave Windows xp a static ip of 192.168.1.1 mask 255.255.255.0 and gateway 1.2, same as eth0. xp says it sees the server. eth0 is up.

DirectoryIndex looks at index.html. I created that file with very simple code and put it in document root. Document root permissions are 755. Access_log 770. Error_log 644. Apache User 755. Listen 80 When I type the ip for eth0 (192.168.1.2) into firefox, firefox gives me an error message - can't find server. The connection status says its connected.

The error log includes a line: [warn]./mod_dnssd.c:No services found to register I don't know what this means. Apache is not writing to access_log. When I cat the path to access_log I get nothing, then a command prompt. I'm looking for the part I'm missing that will let Apache serve that index.html file to firefox so I can see how my code looks to firefox as I go.

Software :: Apache Run Perl Then Create Index Page And Display It

Sep 15, 2010

I've got a perl script which generates an html file. What I'd really like to do is send people to just one page (the perl page) which then generates the html and shows the html page in question. Thus the whole transition will be invisible to the user, they'll just have an html page.FYI the perl script generates a list of the users who last logged in to the system, it needs to be up to date (by the second).Let me know if this isn't clear, I understand it sounds a bit confusing...

Server :: How To Get Apache Running In User Home Directory

Dec 10, 2010

I'm trying to get Apache to run in a user's home directory. I changed the conf file so that Apache runs under the user and group "kiosk" and changed the DocumentRoot and Directory from the default to "/home/kiosk". Then I set Apache to start at boot (chkconfig --level 235 httpd on) and rebooted. When I checked, httpd is running as kiosk like it should (ps aux | grep httpd). However, when I try wget localhost, I get a 403 response back. If as root I call "httpd -k stop" and then "httpd -k start", then everything works exactly as it should (curiously, if I try using "-k restart", it still doesn't work). After this, httpd still shows as running as kiosk and if I check before calling start, it shows no httpd processes running as expected.

This only happens when I use httpd to stop and then start the web server. If I try to restart using apachectl I still get a 403 error. As an interesting aside, after I've used httpd, if I try using "apachectl restart" I get a "(13)Permission denied: Error retrieving pid file run/httpd.pid" error. This is all on a freshly installed CentOS 5.5 server. Why I'm seeing this very different behaviour from what I thought were just equivalent ways of starting Apache? And then what I could do to get it to start up and run properly on boot? One last item to mention is this isn't a permissions problem. I set the permissions to 777 to both the home and kiosk directories (and 666 to the web files) just to be sure that's not the problem.

Fedora :: Apache Install - Access Index.php On Localhost - Permission Denied

Jan 19, 2011

I've just upgraded my laptop to Fedora 14 and installed LAMP on it for a test environment. I've followed the official instructions to install but seem to have a problem that I didn't have on F13 or Opensuse. Each time I try to access index.php on localhost I get a permission denied message and an SElinux alert. I have tried 7 different solutions on various forums and just can't view anything in a browser.

/var/www/html has been set to chmod 777
/var/www/html/index.php has also been set to chmod 777

A standard user can definitely read and write to the above files/folder. Until I commented it out the Welcome/Test page was working perfectly.

Server :: Apache Does Not Have Permission To Modify Files In User Directory - SVN

Mar 30, 2010

I recently started using SVN with Apache for my web development, although I find it really annoying that I have to issue two SVN commands (one local, one remote) to update my web site. I have been looking into SVN post-commit hooks to solve this problem. The only problem is that apache does not have permission to modify files in my user directory... So here is how everything is setup. I am running Slackware 13 full install. There have been no installations overriding any of the default installs.

Server :: Rewrite / Redirect Directory To Port Number In Apache?

So the user typing in example.com/redmine/test would serve up example.com:3000/test, without the user actually connecting through the port. I know this can work through CPanel, but I don't know exactly how it was implemented. I'm looked at how mod_proxy, mod_proxy_html, and mod_rewrite,

CentOS 5 Server :: Apache Mod_security Looking For Atomic Secured Directory?

Mar 6, 2010

I wasn't sure if this is the right place to ask or comment on this, but since it's about Apache web server I thought it should work. I finally figured out how to set up and bring up the site using virtual hosts in Apache, though at the moment it's just for my localhost install.

I set them up so I can have a place to play with possible new themes and/or test out the Drupal 7 alpha / beta releases without messing up my current configuration. I decided to look at the error logs for the currently configured site and it had a lot of messages similar to the following:

[Sat Mar 06 09:45:39 2010] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] ModSecurity: Unable to retrieve collection (name "ip", key "127.0.0.1"). Use SecDataDir to define data directory first. [hostname "site.local"] [uri "/"] [unique_id "ZnUHgsCoAAEAABdzR2QAAAAB"]

Server :: SSH Into Particular Directory - Locale Set Back To Default

Jul 20, 2011

So, I wanted to give myself a short cut to not just login to a remote server, but also change into a particular directory once I got there. This was harder than I expected, but this finally worked when I wrapped this up into a shortcut:
ssh -t user@example.com 'cd /var/www/mydir; bash'
And I just alter the directory path to make another shortcut to a different place on the same server. This does work, however, it seems when I log in this way, some of my environment is lost, and my locale is set back to the default "POSIX". That's not good. I'm running Gentoo Linux (amd64).

Ubuntu Networking :: FTP Server - Setting Default Directory Per User

Jun 21, 2010

I am using VSFTPD as my FTP daemon. I want it to be set up so that my user (cj) will have a default directory of / when I log on to the FTP server and I want the secondary account (guest) to have it's home directory as the default location without any access to the root of the drive.

I need my account to have the default as / because the FTP client that I use in Windows won't go up to the parent directory of the default. Therefore, I cannot access the rest of my drive.

When I set "local_root" to "/" , it brings both users to the / directory when they sign in, even though the guest account is set to open the home directory with the "chroot_list_enable". It seems like the local_root option overrides the chroot_list_enable option.

Is there any way to set the default directory for each local user separately?

Also, Let me know if this is impossible with this FTP daemon

OpenSUSE Network :: Setup An Apache Server On Computer Which Will Allow Browsing Of Files In A Specific Directory And Subdirectories?

Jun 13, 2011

I'm trying to setup an Apache server on my computer which will allow browsing of files in a specific directory and subdirectories, without needing any sort of authentication.

I've got the Apache2 server up and running through yast, and everything works fine as long as I try to point it to the /www/htdocs folder. However, I want to point it at another folder, which is on another partition. This partition is formatted as NTFS, if that matters at all (here's some background on some permissions issues I had with the NTFS partitions recently).

When I change the "Directory" setting in the Yast http server configuration utility to the directory on the NTFS partition I wish to use, attempting to access the server results in the following error:

Code: Access Forbidden: You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected. If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Error 403
