Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Httpd Wiki" for change notification.
The "13PermissionDenied" page has been changed by RichBowen: http://wiki.apache.org/httpd/13PermissionDenied?action=diff&rev1=17&rev2=18 In order to serve files, Apache must have the proper permission granted by the operating system to access those files. In particular, the {{{User}}} or {{{Group}}} specified in {{{httpd.conf}}} must be able to read all files that will be served and''''' search the directory containing those files, along with all parent directories up to the root of the filesystem'''''. Typical permissions on a unix-like system for resources not owned by the {{{User}}} or {{{Group}}} specified in {{{httpd.conf}}} would be 644 {{{-rw-r--r--}}} for ordinary files and 755 {{{drwxr-x-r-x}}} for directories or CGI scripts. You may also need to check extended permissions (such as SELinux permissions) on operating systems that support them. + + If you are running 2.4, the AH error code may give you more information here. + + AH00132: file permissions deny server access + AH00035: access denied because search permissions are missing on a component of the path === An Example === Lets say that you received the {{{Permission Denied}}} error when accessing the file {{{/usr/local/apache2/htdocs/foo/bar.html}}} on a unix-like system. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: docs-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: docs-h...@httpd.apache.org
