Also, as Ryan stated, it could be a permission if the apache user cannot execute dirs down into the public_html dir. Another option is to create a web space, say /var/www/html/joeuser, then make it owned by the user & group. Next make a sym link: ln -s /var/www/html/joeuser ~joe/public_html The idea is that first, the user does not need world readable dir's in his home, and also, the url does not need to have the ~username in it does not give away user id's which helps with security. -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
