I had one opensuse 13.2 server. I am trying to access a website with symlink, but i gets below error in apache logs,
Code:
[core:error] [pid 1337] [client 192.168.1.101:46119] AH00037: Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /srv/www, referer: http://192.168.1.102/owncloud/
Dear Experts,
I had one opensuse 13.2 server. I am trying to access a website with symlink, but i gets below error in apache logs,
Code:
[core:error] [pid 1337] [client 192.168.1.101:46119] AH00037: Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /srv/www, referer: http://192.168.1.102/owncloud/
my server config files
Code:
linux:~ # cat /etc/apache2/default-server.conf
DocumentRoot "/srv/www/htdocs"
<Directory "/srv/www/htdocs">
Options +FollowSymlinks +Multiviews
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
A few things, and you may have already tried them:
Did you restart apache after making this change? If not...try that first. You *MUST* restart Apache after making config file changes, before they will take effect.
Things are case-sensitive....it should be "MultiViews" not "Multiviews"
I had already posted the outputs of all your cmds except /. please find below
Except I had not GIVEN YOU ANY COMMANDS....did you not read/understand my post??? Again:

Try specifying the options without the + signs.
Additional from yesterday: did you check the error logs for Apache after you RESTARTED IT with the mis-cased option??
There are no 'commands' to try, and nothing to do with permissions.
I did changes suggested by you now
1) Multiviews to MultiViews
2) Removed + sign
3) Most imp (I was doing everytime after making changes in config files)
3a) Check syntax by cmd apache2ctl configtest. If its results me syntax ok then
3b) /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Code:
but still no effect
Lastly. I know that you had not given me any cmds but ember1205 asked me to post them which i already posted before his reply.
I replied to both of you. I apologies if it got personally to you.

Interesting...did you try "service apache2 restart", instead of the init.d command you posted? And did you actually check the error logs (typically in /var/log/apache2/error_log). I would run:
Code:
cat /dev/null > /var/log/apache2/error_log
service apache2 restart
So I could see a 'fresh' (and small) set of data from the apache startup. You could also try putting "Options All" as a test, and see if symlinks work for you then. If so, there may be a typo....which I see in your original post. As said before...those options are case sensitive, and from the Apache sample config file, it should be "FollowSymLinks"...you have a lower-case "l".

Ok...and did you read ALL of my last post??? Did you see the part where I suggested you use "All", and that you check the FollowSymLinks directive, because you don't have the right case??? Might want to do/try the things suggested, instead of posting back one thing at a time.
These logs are after changing Options to All from my previous Options
