Hi, can somebody help me?: no matter what I try, Apache refuses to access a directory symlink in its default cgi-bin: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/symlink/ - everything up to including symlink is world r_x - everything up to including everything accessed beyond the resolved symlink is world r_x - FollowSymLinks is enabled for /usr/lib/cgi-bin in every Apache configuration (httpd.conf, sites-enabled/000-default) - SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is disabled for /usr/lib/cgi-bin in every Apache configuration (httpd.conf, sites-enabled/000-default) The Browser prints error 403, the log shows: "Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/symlink". I checked sudo -u www-data cd symlink : it works. No matter what I set, Apache follows file symlinks in its DocumentRoot, localhost/sym.link gets delivered to the browser - FollowSymLinks is disabled in every Apache configuration (httpd.conf, sites-enabled/000-default) I did restart Apache each time. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
