Sorry, I include the thread at the bottom. As I configured Apache according to the squirrelmail documentation my guess was, that it is not a Apache problem but a problem within the squirrelmail configuration. I can configure other aliases and these work after I removed the trailing slashes from the Alias directive: Alias /webmail/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/SquirrelMail/src/login.php" When trying to alias to SquirrelMail (http://example.com/webmail/ - why do I have to use the trailing slashes here still?) I'm getting the login page without the images but I cannot log in. The browser shows the following: "Not Found - The requested URL /webmail/redirect.php was not found on this server." The apache error log shows the following: "File does not exist: C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/images, referer: http://example.com/webmail/ script 'C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/htdocs/SquirrelMail/src/login.phpredirect.php' not found or unable to stat, referer: http://example.com/webmail/" I didn't manage to find out where this aliasing to login.phpredirect.php is coming from. I did a search on the content of all the files on the server and the expression "login.phpredirect.php" is mentioned nowhere. Any hints on this? I don't think it makes sense to include the initial post here now as the situation has changed - but nevertheless: > I can log in to SquirrelMail when using > http://example.com/SquirrelMail/src/login.php > > I'm getting a "Forbidden - You don't have permission to access /webmail/ > on this server." -message when using the Alias. > > This is what I configured in httpd.conf (according to > http://www.squirrelmail.org/docs/admin/admin-3.html): > > Alias /webmail/ "C:/Program Files/Apache > Group/Apache2.2/htdocs/SquirrelMail/" > <Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache > Group/Apache2.2/htdocs/SquirrelMail/"> > Options Indexes > AllowOverride none > DirectoryIndex index.php > Order allow,deny > allow from all > </Directory> > > I don't understand why this problem is occuring.
