Apache Problem - Aliases
 

Here is my setup inside httpd.conf:

alias /sabastor "/sabastor/"
<Directory "/sabastor">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

AND:

<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks Indexes
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

Permissions for /sabastor on the file system are as follows:

drwxrwxrwx 9 dbbenson sabadmin 4096 Feb 2 10:11 sabastor/

After making the changes and restarting Apache, I try to pull up my url: http://fakeurl.dom/sabator/ and I get a an error message saying:

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /sabastor/NetTestCompleted/ on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Anyone know how I can see my subdirectories under 'sabastor' ?

Thanks,

Can you try to do one change as mentioned below?

instead of alias /sabastor "/sabastor/" try

alias /sabastor/ "/sabastor/"

Hope it helps,
Rahul.

Still getting the same issue... also, I don't know if this has anything to do with it or not but /sabastor is actually on a different device. Would this make a difference or is there anything someone could see that I'm leaving out?

Thanks,

Are you able to open any of the directory aliases? There are some default aliases provided by apache like "/icons" etc.

Also what do you mean by "different device" ? Is it a mounted partition or you are reffering to something else here?

To the first question, YES

To the second one:

We have a mounted scsi drive for this (btw ... this is installed from within vmware).

Thanks,
