Hi Mirko,

I have problems getting the following setup to work:

On my server, "Location /" is owned by mod_python, because I'm  

running a Trac

listing in

a subdirectory "Location /releases", but I can't get it working. I  

was able

to configure it so that files are accessible under this directory  

with the

following configuration:

   <Location /releases/>
       SetHandler file
   </Location>

But that's not really what I'd like to have. Now, is there a special  

handler

that creates those listings? Note that if I remove my "Location /"

configuration, I get the listings on /, so that seems to be ok, now  

I just

need to get it to work only in the subdirectory :) Oh, and I get a  

"Attempt

to serve directory: /var/www/releases/" error in my logfile, but I  

don't

really understand what it wants to tell me in my case.

The (I guess relevant) sections from my config:

<VirtualHost * >
   DocumentRoot /var/www/
   ServerName xxx

   <Location />
       SetHandler mod_python
.....
       Order allow,deny
       Allow from all
   </Location>

   <Location /releases/>
       SetHandler file
   </Location>

   <Location /template/>
       SetHandler file
   </Location>

   <Location ~ "/\w+/login">
       AuthType Basic
       AuthName "Trac"
       AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/htpasswd
       Require valid-user
   </Location>

</VirtualHost>

Any help or ideas I could try are very welcome :)

Take a look at the Options configuration for your location where you  

want Apache to generate the listing. My site uses

	Options +Indexes

If you have symlinks there (careful! Don't point a symlink outside  

your doctree!) then you can use

	Options +Indexes +FollowSymlinks

Other options may apply to your configuration. It would depend on what  

options are already active when Indexes  gets added. (This of course  

goes into the right <Location> container.)

Hope this helps,
