Hi

Thanks

I tried the below as you suggested.

<Directory /opt/ram>
Order allow,deny
deny from all
</Directory>


If i access https://ecare.com/opt/ram/ iam getting the below

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /opt/ram/ on this server.

If i access https://ecare.com/opt/ram/private.key iam able to view the private key in the web page.


I should not able to access the files under /opt/ram directory.

My goal is that if i access the url https://ecare.com/opt/ram/private.key i should get the Forbidden page


Can you please help on this

Thanks

What is the DocumentRoot?
You need to use the whole path to the directory you want to deny access, including the docroot part:
Assuming the DocumentRoot is "/var/www", then you should use:

Hi

Thanks

/opt/ram is a full path

I don't get it. If it's the full path, then why you use https://ecare.com/opt/ram? It should be just https://ecare.com

Anyway as I told you in my 1st post, better remove the execute bit from the directory in question, so apache cannot descend in it:

Hi bathory,

After removing chmod -x /opt/ram execute permission iam unable access https://ecare.com/opt/ram

Thanks a lot for your assistance
