Directory / is the root of the filesystem, so it should always be set in server config with Require all denied, it is not the documentroot, chances are you have a Directory directive elsewhere denying, also make 100% sure you don't mix Order/Allow/Deny with 2.4 directives. So: Server config <Directory /> Require all denied </Directry> in virtualhost and for documentroot: <Virtualhost *:port> DocumentRoot /path/do/docroot ### # Other directives here <Directory /path/to/docroot> Require all granted </Directory> <Virtualhost> El mié., 6 feb. 2019 a las 6:03, Dan Ehrlich (<dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.invalid>) escribió: > > I think it’s the L in your rewrite rule. > > It stands for Last and means it won’t process any further rules.
