In the apache server installation I have a .conf file which forwards all requests from www.domain.com to c:\www\domain. Now, i'm trying to forward www.domain.com/abcd to a different subfolder locally (say c:\www\abcd). i tried adding another .conf which looked like this.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.domain.com/abcd
DocumentRoot "c:/www/abcd"
ErrorDocument 404 /404.php
ErrorLog "C:/logs/error.log"
CustomLog "d:/logs/access.log" common
<Directory "c:/www/abcd">
RewriteEngine on
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
<Location />
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
Allow from all
</Location>
</VirtualHost>
This doesn't work as intended. When i go to www.domain.com/abcd , I guess its trying to access c:\www\domain\abcd and showing not found error. Is there anyway to solve this issue without making DNS entries and without making changes to your local hosts file?
One possible solution would be to make a symbolic link
mklink /D C:\www\domain\abcd C:\www\abcd

I have a problem that apache configuration. Here my virtual host setting.
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName orocrm.75cl.sg
DirectoryIndex app.php
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/oro/web
<Directory /var/www/html/oro/web>
# enable the .htaccess rewrites
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log
CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
But, when I access to other menus, http://orocrm.75cl.sg/oro/web/app.php/ is always shown in front of the my targeted menu. So, it was shown 404 page. e.g http://orocrm.75cl.sg/oro/web/app.php/magento/cart/. It should be like that http://orocrm.75cl.sg/app.php/magento/cart/
May I know how do I fix this issue.
I recall that some versions of Apache come with a pre-configured vhost to point to the welcome.conf and such.
So I would suggest commenting the welcome.conf which is at /etc/httpd or on some distros /etc/apache2 and in those same directories find and remove any installation virtual hosts.
After that you should be free of conflicts as the pre defined virtualhost is like follows:
<VirtualHost *:80>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/welcome"
And that is all I can remember from last time looking at the file.
Enjoy
What I'm trying to achieve is quite simple. I want Apache to use the content of /home/user/www/bar/public when users go to www.example.com/foo/bar. The bar part may change and I want Apache to be able to change the directory in consequence.
I tried to do this. And it works but it won't load my index.php file and actually shows the content of the directory...
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName example.com
AliasMatch ^/foo/(.*)$ /home/user/www/$1/public
<Directory /home/user/www/$1/public>
AllowOverride all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
There isn't any .htaccess file and it doesn't need one because I managed to make it work with a subdomain :
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName test.example.com
DocumentRoot /home/user/www/test/public
<Directory /home/user/www/test/public>
AllowOverride all
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
I'm really stuck and any help would be great ! Thank you.
You can't reuse the "$1" in the section because that's local to the AliasMatch.
You can simply use a wildcard if you are okay with applying the contents to every public dir under every subdir of /home/user/www
I'm running Apache 2.4 on Ubuntu 14.04 server. It's purpose is a mail server so it has postfix, dovecot and roundcube on it (amongst other things). I'm trying, and failing, to configure Apache to serve the pages that I want.
I have an SSL certificate installed and working correctly. I want to force all access over HTTPS so I have:
<VirtualHost *:80>
Redirect / https://mailserver.hni.ae/
</VirtualHost>
Both sets of files to be served are under /var/www/html, the first being /var/www/html/A and the other /var/www/html/B (let's say). I have configured my /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf (which has a symlink to ./sites-enabled) to be:
<VirtualHost *:443>
SSLEngine On
SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/private/mycert.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/private/mycert.key
ServerAdmin webmaster#mydomain.com
ServerName www.mydomain.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/html/
DirectoryIndex index.php
<Directory /var/www/html/A>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
<Directory /var/www/html/B>
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from All
Allow from 192.168.1.1
</Directory>
LogLevel warn
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
And that works. I can go to www.mydomain.com/B and it serves the login page for those pages (only when I access from the specified IP address), and www.mydomain.com/A and login to the pages from app A.
My problem: I want to be able to go to www.mydomain.com/C and just plain www.mydomain.com and be redirected to www.mydomain.com/A but when I use Redirect ... the server gets into a loop and tries to serve www.mydomain.com/AAAAAAA.... I suspect I should use the RedirectMatch temp ^/$... directive but can't get that to work either. Maybe something to do with the Redirect for :80 to :443 clashing? There is no .htaccess involved as I'm using AllowOverride None.
I've read the Apache 2.4 documentation thoroughly but just can't figure it out. Any suggestions?
You can use a RewriteRule. Add this to your VirtualHost:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/(C/?|)$ /A [R,L]
Make sure mod_rewrite is enabled too.
Explanation:
Regex ^/(C/?|)$ will match /C optionally followed by a /, or just / i.e. the root of www.mydomain.com
is there anyway to defy .htaccess? I mean to break what the rule written in the .htaccess file.
I have a directory, and I don't want others to browse it. So I created .htaccess file and wrote this
Deny from all
Is there anyway people can break it?
Nope this is radical. Nobody can access it. It is safe and commonly used. The deny is made server side, so nobody can try to bypass it.
.htaccess files are as secure as Apache allows you to.
See for example, assuming your .htaccess file is located in /var/www/foo:
<Directory />
Allow From All
AllowOverride All # allow .htaccess files globally
</Directory>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.foo.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/foo # impossible to access, thanks to .htaccess
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName www.bar.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/foo # same directory as above
<Directory /var/www/foo>
AllowOverride None # woops .htaccess will not be read, files can be accessed from this vhost
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
Therefore there is no guarantee ever that your files are securely protected, as long as you don't know (and don't understand) how your apache installation is configured.
I am unable to stop apache from creating directory listings when using the server IP address. I have tried editing the relevant site-available files as follows;
<VirtualHost *:80>
JkMount /* default
ServerName example.co.uk
ServerAlias www.example.co.uk
ServerAdmin me#example.co.uk
DocumentRoot /var/www/example.co.uk/public_html
ErrorLog /var/www/example.co.uk/logs/error.log
CustomLog /var/www/example.co.uk/logs/access.log combined
<Directory /var/www/example.co.uk/public_html>
Options -Indexes
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>
...but the public_html folder contents are being listed if I access the server using a url of this format;
http://192.168.1.99/example.co.uk/public_html
I have also tried to amend the apache config file at /etc/apache2/apache.conf to include the following;
<Directory />
Options -Indexes
</Directory>
..but no joy.
I am using Tomcat, and I need my WEB-INF folder to deny access. It doesn't, and so any .class files can be downloaded.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
thanks
This sounds a little weird. Do you have an Apache HTTPD in front of an Apache Tomcat Server?
In this case the Apache HTTPD must not point to a directory where the Apache Tomcat files reside! The communication between both can be seen more as a proxy rather than a plugin.
We have some good experience using mod_proxy_ajp for this purpose. But if you are able to download .class files and (panic mode on) the web.xml (panic mode off) something is terribly wrong.
This means that it will not reach your VirtualHost settings, but default virtual host settings.
You have 2 options (at least):
1, put .htaccess file to your directory for which you want to restrict listing
2, Setup you IP based virtual host with similar settings as your name-based vhosts
You said that you put
<Directory />
Options -Indexes
</Directory>
You should have Location instead of Directory there
What if you add /* to the end?
<Directory /var/www/example.co.uk/public_html/*>
Options -Indexes
</Directory>
Update:
Or try to add the entry outside the VirtualHost directive.
