I'm using MAMP PRO on my OS X 10.6 with Espionage to encrypt my ~/Sites folder (where MAMP is pulling my virtual hosts from).
I'm having trouble having MAMP's Apache follow the symlink that Espionage automatically creates to /Volumes/EspionageMounts/lee/3042560432 (I believe this changes all the time, so cannot be static).
My 'Sites' folder is owned by lee/staff.
The volume Espionage mounts seems to be owned by the same.
I have set MAMP Pro to use user 'lee' for Apache.
FollwSymLinks is set in my test.dev virtual host.
And yet, any Apache request to test.dev/whatever.html yields a 403 Forbidden.
The Apache error logs shows:
[Sun Jul 18 08:39:14 2010] [error]
[client 127.0.0.1] Symbolic link not
allowed: /Users/lee/Sites
What am I missing?
Make sure the target folder of the symlink has sufficient permissions for "others."
Try checking the option "Public mountpoint" on Espionage.
I had the same problem. You must select "Public mountpoint" under Espionage settings for your ~Sites folder. Click "Save Changes" and you should see your local sites properly when your folder isn't locked.

When trying to load my website I receive the following message.
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Apache/2.4.18 (Ubuntu) Server at www.xxx.com Port 80
Please note I am complete novice to this so any guidance would be amazing!!
Without more information; A couple of possible things to look at:
1)
Check permissions on the directory you are hosting the web files (usually under /var/www). See this link for adding your user to www-data group etc..
https://askubuntu.com/questions/162866/correct-permissions-for-var-www-and-wordpress
2)
Issue in Apache config. Discussed here:
WAMP : Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server. Apache/2.4.18 (Win64) PHP/5.6.19
Just change the permission of that directory in which you have your project files
type chmod 777 directory-name
I need to get apache running as a non-root user, listening to port 8443, in order to have a new website available (on localhost:8443) for internal security scanning, on a CentOS 7.3 system. I understand only the basics of apache (on Ubuntu), and I am NOT a web administrator, so am unfamiliar with the many options / config settings necessary to get this to work.
I have a directory (/webcontent) with my website content (which requires php), and can host there the various conf files necessary. But I am stumbling through getting httpd.conf setup properly for apache to run as a local user, launched with:
httpd -f /webcontent/conf/httpd.conf
And have set the logs to write to /webcontent/logs (via ErrorLog parameter), but it then complains about not having write access to /run/httpd, and so won't actually start:
[Thu Feb 23 11:59:51.289587 2017] [auth_digest:error] [pid 25464]
(13)Permission denied: AH01762: Failed to create shared memory segment
on file /run/httpd/authdigest_shm.25464
I imagine this is only the first of many problems I might have to get this running, so if anyone can point out the specific config settings necessary in httpd.conf (or elsewhere?) to get this scenario to work, that would be very much appreciated. Or has any other suggestions on running a non-root instance of apache for testing.
A bit late, but I see there's no answer so far. I just ran into this issue myself. My solution is below.
Use the DefaultRuntimeDir directive to override the default "/run/httpd" directory. This goes in httpd.conf. For example:
DefaultRuntimeDir "/my/local/rundir"
This will cause apache to create "/my/local/rundir/authdigest_shm.1234"
For some reason this doesn't also override the default pid file directory, so set it with the PidFile directive, e.g.:
PidFile "/my/local/rundir/httpd.pid"
You might also want to look at the ServerRoot directive.
This is a brand new installation of a bitnami gitorius image on EC2, worked fine until i tried to enable https/ssl.
I am sure i have misconfigured apache somehow, however the root document at https://tarantula.anatexis.net loads just fine.
but if one goes to the gitorious app at https://tarantula.anatexis.net/gitorious you get permission denied.
which config file do I edit to allow https traffic to gitorious.
looking at the apache logs, is see this,
[Mon Jun 03 17:25:20 2013] [error] [client 71.17.13.29] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /opt/bitnami/apache2/htdocs/gitorious/, referer:Https://tarantula.anatexis.net/
Any help would be appreciated, Thanks
Joe
OK, so i fixed it, found the file /opt/bitnami/apache2/conf/extra/httpd-ssl.conf this config file has the document root in it for ssl traffic, the default is wrong and it needs to be changed to
DocumentRoot "/opt/bitnami/apps/gitorious/htdocs/public"
This solved all my issues I believe.
I'm getting a weird problem here.
I have at least 30 localhost WordPress installs made before and every one of them went fine.
Now (after re-installing Win7 and XAMPP) I can't access ANY install.php file (whether it's WPs own, a dummy empty one, etc). Also, it doesn't matter where it's located (wp-admin folder, a random place outside WP, htdocs root folder, etc).
This is not an antivirus or Windows firewall problem.
It seems to be coming from apache itself.
The apache error log says this
[Fri Nov 30 16:46:40.223524 2012] [access_compat:error] [pid 5876:tid 1604] [client ::1:59365] AH01797: client denied by server configuration: D:/xampp/htdocs/vmf05/wp-admin/install.php
Does anyone have a clue on this?
I've went through all the normal steps and haven't found a solution yet.
Also, if I disable the access_compat module, apache won't start.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I can't believe what the problem was!
I moved a .htaccess file that had the WP better security directives to the root of xampp's site as a backup, and forgot to move it back after.
No install.php file ANYWHERE could be accessed since it had the following:
<files install.php>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</files>
And, since the file was on the root, it was affecting the whole server.
i am having problems with setting up a virtual host (Aptana Project directory) on a LAMP installation on Ubuntu 11 (via tasksel).
i can access
/var/www via ht*p://localhost, but accessing /home/tg/Aptana... via ht*p://ea-dev returns an
"You don't have permission to access / on this server."
this is my apache2.conf: http://pastebin.com/Yja02tnE
this is my ea-dev located in /etc/apache2/sites-available/: http://pastebin.com/U1Vu2jxD
thats what i get in the error.log:
[crit] [client 127.0.0.1]
(13)Permission denied: /home/tg/.htaccess pcfg_openfile: unable to
check htaccess file, ensure it is readable
I really don't understand why its written /home/tg and not /home/tg/Aptana... but maybe its just an abbreviation.
Have you checked to make sure the user running the apache daemon can read the files in the directories in question? I'd start with the .htaccess file. That is almost always the cause of the permission denied error. You may also need to add the tg user to the www-data group.
However, the other thing that stands out is the use of spaces in your path for DocumentRoot... I haven't actually ever done that, so I would also try normalizing your directory path, removing spaces and capital letters. That could explain why the path in the error log does not match the path you expected to see - apache does not normally abbreviate such things.
Good luck and let us know if you make any progress or have additional questions/info.
