Okay, thanks Martin.  I am beat.  I'm going to turn in and pick this up after 

work tomorrow morning.

I appreciate your help, but it looks like we're at a dead end here too.  I 

suspect php isn't working somehow, though on the same server phpmyadmin and 

dokuwiki work just fine.

I don't know what is going on with mythweb and it's really eating at me.

Hi Mark,

as fare as I know, php variables have $ sign on begin. So, if tmpl is variable, 

row should like:

require 'modules/_shared/$tmpl/'.$tmpl.'/header.php';

you can very simple test it add this few rows before this require function:

echo "<pre>";
var_dum($tmpl);
var_dump(tmpl);
echo "</pre>";

if it is not variable or even in $tmpl is not any "default" string, well, you 

have several options.

a) go trought code and find out what and why it is broken.
b) simply exchange .'tmpl'. with default so it will look:

require 'modules/_shared/tmpl/default/header.php';

c) ask developer of application for a help or recommendation what to do.

I do have that file tree Martin, but it's slightly different:

/var/www/html/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/default/header.php

notice the last three subdirectories "tmpl/default/header.php" versus 

tmpl/tmpl/header.php

The function in question is actually looking for tmpl/'.tmpl.'/header.php.  I 

take that to mean that '.tmp.' is a variable that expands to the template name 

("default" is a template name in this context).  I have no idea how or why it is 

screwing this up.  Here is the relevant code chunk from 

/var/www/html/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/_errors/db_vars_error.php

Hi Mark,

now the apache is serving your page and this is a PHP error. So apache is 

working fine and we have to tune PHP now.

on line 23 in file 

/var/www/html/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/_errors/db_vars_error.php you are 

including some other file by function require. PHP is not able to find this 

file, because it is looking into relative path 

modules/_shared/tmpl/tmpl/header.php. Please, check if you have 

/var/www/html/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/tmpl/header.php file present on 

system and if yes, try to change function

require(modules/_shared/tmpl/tmpl/header.php);

to

require(/var/www/html/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/tmpl/header.php);

Steve: These machines are all on my lan and they are on static IP's.  I've 

ditched the "access it from the internet" idea. That will only work if I can get 

a second frontend running on my primary web server because my dls provider has 

all the ports locked down.

Martin: I added mythweb to the DirectoryIndex and that  is progress, I guess.  I 

got a web page that said:

Warning at /var/www/html/mythweb/modules/_shared/tmpl/_errors/db_vars_error.php, 

line 23:

require(modules/_shared/tmpl/tmpl/header.php) [function.require]: failed to open 

stream: No such file or directory

The error_log says nothing about it. I've looked as line 23 in db_vars_error.php 

and I have no idea what it wants regarding 

"modules/_shared/tmpl/tmpl/header.php".

Am I a module short?

Hi Mark,

my sorry. My english is not so good :-) Try to look here:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_dir.html#directoryindex

and after that find in your configuration directive DirectoryIndex add 

mythweb.php there. It should look like:

DirectoryIndex mythweb.php index.html index.php

I'm sorry Martin, that makes little sense to me.  This thing is setup by 

defaults to point to /var/www/html/mythweb and execute mythweb.php. It isn't 

supposed to display a file index, so disabling Autoindex seems the way to go. I 

don't think I need DirectoryIndex because I dont' want a directory -- I want it 

to execute the mythweb.php script.

Hi Mark,

by directive DirectoryIndex you are enumerate files, which will be listed in 

case, when client will point only to dorectory. So in case that client will call 

http://mythweb/ apache will check existence of files enumerated by 

DirectoryIndex. If it is not able to find them, apache try to do autoindex - 

display directory in web form.

Autoindex is disabled by Options in your configuration and DirectoryIndex is not 

present in directory. Logical result of it is 403.

I hope it will help you.

I really hate to bother the group with this issue because my ignorance about
apache access is so profound. But here goes.

I was attempting to get mythweb accessible from the Internet and just all of
a sudden, it was not available (error 403).  I have spent hours editing the
hddpd.conf file, the mythweb.conf file, file permissions, implementing and
then deimplementing .htaccess files, and everything else I can find.
Unfortuanately, I can't get mythweb to show up on any browser on my lan.
This after Mythweb ran spectacularly on this system for years. The only
thing I can find that seems amiss is that my web server doesn't seem to
support php_value or php_flag.

Apache
Server version: Apache/2.2.14 (Mandriva Linux/PREFORK-1.5mdv2010.0)
Server built:   Aug 16 2010 06:19:58

PHP 5.16

Mythweb 0.23.1

I will be more than happy to point helpers toward httpd.conf , or any other
files, at pastbin if it would help.

Can anybody tell me anything?

Mark,

What does the error log say, exactly?

Frank

Thanks for asking Frank. I've got logging turned up to debugging and all it 

gives me is this:

[Wed Aug 25 10:04:06 2010] [error] [client 192.168.1.106] Directory index 

forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/mythweb/

I believe this confirms that it's just a misconfig somewhere on my part.

Mark,

Have you followed this install: 

http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/browser/branches/release-0-22-fixes/mythplugins/mythweb/INSTALL

If it is infact related to the MythTV Project?

Thanks,
Daniel
