Greeting All, I just wanted to let the list know that all my FPSE problems are now fixed, so the issues for both of my threads can be considered closed. Here's the summary:
After I finally got the FPSE working on my rootweb (as per previous discussions), I tried to publish my subweb (~vigh) via HTTP. It didn't complain, so I thought everything was okay, until I noticed that my hit counter didn't update. I searched around and found a few things to try (like recaculating the links in the site). But looking more carefully, I noticed that my subweb had NOT actually been published -- HTTP publish failed silently. Hmmmmm . . . Since my previous issue had to do with my httpd.conf, I suspected that this was also the issue here. The thing which finally helped me figure out the problem was comparing my config file to the httpd.conf example posted at the end of John Spence's tutorial page (http://www.johnspencer.info/LinuxTutorials/FPSE_VirtualServers/FPSE_Virtual Servers.htm). I tried his file and I was able to configure my subweb and publish and everything worked beautifully. I then used my old httpd.conf and stuff broke again. So I sifted through the two files, changing things one by one and was finally able to narrow it down to a UserDir directive. My httpd.conf file had the line: UserDir disable root which I had originally put in for security reasons. I commented this out and everything now works. Beautiful. As an aside, using my newfound skills, I installed FPSE on another server (FC2) using just the steps in the tutorial and everything worked the first time. So it's nice to know that it is *possible* for stuff to install correctly! I only varied from his directions in that I don't load mod_cgid.so into the server (I don't have this on FC2 or FC3 and it's apparently not needed) and I went ahead and set up my subweb from within the install script (then I set the rest of the settings from the web-based admin).

A FP hit counter on the index page for my server (in the rootweb: http://inte099182.halls.colostate.edu/index.htm) updates every time I refresh the page, but a hit counter in my subweb is stuck at 1 even though I've accessed it from multiple machines now. (The subweb is implemented by a public_html-type subweb in my home directory and is accessed by: http://inte099182.halls.colostate.edu/~vigh/index.htm). Background: I can HTTP publish to both my rootweb and my subweb. I checked the counter file in the _private directory and it is there (not sure what the permissions should be). I'm thinking this there is some setting or directive in httpd.conf that needs to be changed to specifically allow the subweb counter file to be read or updated, but I'm not sure what -- doesn't the subweb inherit all settings from the rootweb by default? Maybe I have too many AllowOverrides now? I've done some web searching but most of the stuff refers to old stuff or FP on windows servers. Any thoughts?
