Apache .htaccess - Permission denied. Exclude from httpd.conf ??

SmurfGGM · 01-13-2011, 03:38 PM

Hi there

I am administoring a few websites and the latest website to be deployed has a few "unable to check htaccess file, ensure it is readable, referer: " errors in the apache-error log.

That is fine, becuase the directory doesnt contain a .htaccess file.

Is there a setting whereby I can turn off this error ?

I dont want to turn off checking for .htaccess files because some directorys have this file and use it.

Many thanks

I'm not sure I'm understanding correctly, but it seems that leaving the error reporting unchanged is the most helpful idea. You'll still want to know in some cases when Apache cannot find the .htaccess file.

Hi,

Make sure that the directory in question has the right permissions:

Code:

chmod 755 /path/to/htdocs/directory
