access 403 forbidden - user_dir

I can't access the localhost/~user

the users public_html (and a index.html) is created and world readable (in fact 777 !)

in httpd.conf:

<Directory /home/*/public_html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

I had to include the following to enable this on my setup:

Code:

<IfModule mod_userdir.c>

    UserDir public_html

</IfModule>



UserDir enabled masterc

And obviously, this enabled for my user, masterc.

Cool

It didn't help:
I have

Code:

LoadModule userdir_module modules/mod_userdir.so

Code:

AddModule mod_userdir.c

Code:

<IfModule mod_userdir.c>

UserDir public_html

</IfModule>

UserDir enabled sigurd sn5607 kornelius

I'm assuming you restarted apache after making the changes? If so, post up the permissions on your home directory as well as public_html ( ls -lh )

The home directory was 700 – but when I changed it to 701 – the access was permitted (it did'nt help to add read rights).
At this stage - public_html is 777.
Is this really necessary – giving executable right to everyone?

No, you can go about it other ways. chgroup apache, change the group apache runs as to users, add apache to the users group, create an all new group, chgroup to that. Play with the perms to suit your needs, I personally don't have quite the strict perms you do on my home dir, it's not like I am hiding the code to unlock a nuclear war head in my home directory and don't want any other user on the system to read it ;)

Cool
