I have a server running Apache 2.2.11_7 on FreeBSD 6-2-RELEASE with webdav enabled. I have several domains on the machine. I have the following directive for one domain, which works just fine with webdav: <VirtualHost *> ServerName webdav.example.com ServerAlias files.example.com DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/example.com/ ErrorLog /usr/local/www/example.com/logs/example.error_log CustomLog /usr/local/www/example.com/logs/example.access_log combined DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock.example <location /> DAV On AuthType basic AuthName BUops AuthUserFile /usr/local/www/example.com/.htdavpass Options All ForceType text/plain <Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK> require valid-user </Limit> </location> </VirtualHost> The document root contains an htaccess file that contains AddType application/xml .html (I'm actually not sure why this directive is there) I have another domain which gives an error overtime I try to login, but its setup is nearly identical. <virtualhost *> ServerName webdav.example.net DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/example.net/ DavLockDB /tmp/DavLock.examplenet <location /> DAV On AuthType Basic AuthName "Example.net DAV" AuthUserFile /usr/local/www/example.net/.htdavpass Options All Allow from All ForceType text/plain <Limit PUT POST DELETE PROPFIND PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK> require user jeans </limit> </location> </VirtualHost> The .htdavpass file for the second domain contains the user jeans and a password and was setup with the command htpasswd -bc /usr/local/www/jenandersontarver.com/.htdavpass jeans <PASSWORD> the error in the logs is: [error] [client 71.229.144.93] client denied by server configuration: /usr/local/www/example.net/ The only difference in the files is the require directive, but I've seen that exact syntax many times, so I don't know why that would cause a failure, and besides, if I change the directive to 'require valid-user' it still fails. both directories and all the files in them are owned by the www user (except .htdavpass which is owned by root), and I cannot figure out what the issue could be.
