Bug #: 51722
Summary: A broken symlink breaks the Redirect directive
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.2.17
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: mod_alias
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
If my config contains "Redirect /images/ http://somewhere.else/images/";, the
URI http://here/images/ is redirected as it should.
Creating a file, a folder or a symlink pointing to any existing file, giving it
the name "images" and placing it in the DocumentRoot has no effect, this actual
"image" is ignored.
But if "images" is a broken symlink, the redirection will fail and the log will
show "[error] Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible:
/.../images".
