Re: Apache service reported path is invalid

[Gregory Kuzmicki <gregory.kuzmicki@xxxxxxxxx>]

On that note, to verify if it is indeed a permissions issue, you may troubleshoot by granting all permissions to all users.

Function: CHMOD

If access proceeds as desired then you can at least be certain it is a permissions issue; then revert back to your policies and make note one by one to determine which user(s) are preventing desired access functionality. If still access proceeds undesired, we can possibly rule out the permissions issue.

You would want to attempt to reach that path while connected as that user. Any error would prevent you from reading the directory.

As Eric said, the only reason left is a permissions issue, which results in that error.

Please find the config and the path in which we are using the network path. Please let us know is any changes in the config file, and also find the config file for reference.

Can you show the updated configuration? It's very difficult to see what you did otherwise.

Hi,

But when we run the 'httpd.exe' on CMD it works without any error and we are able to access files that exist within the path (No changes in the path format "\\\\10.12.30.50\\COMTRACK01\\Comtrack_processing_root").

Whereas we run with service we are getting the path invalid error.

Yes, we have tried with both symbols as mentioned in the below mail then also we are facing the same issue.

Warm Regards,

Try a few things:

1) Don't escape the \'s in the path

2) Use / instead of \

3) map the network path to a drive letter in windows.

Hi,

   We are using the Apache2.4.57 version on one of the servers. Here we have facing an issue when we add the external drive to the config file. Kindly find the below error message which we found in the EventViewer.

The Apache service named reported the following error:

>>> Ah00526: Syntax error on the line 406 of c:/Apache24/conf/httpd.conf

The Apache service named reported the following error:

>>> <Directory "\\\\10.12.30.50\\COMTRACK01\\Comtrack_processing_root"> path is invalid.
