Bug ID: 70025
Summary: AccessFileName Directive: Outdated regarding
AllowOverride
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.5-HEAD
Hardware: All
URL: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/en/mod/core.html
#accessfilename
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P3
Component: Documentation
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
The documentation of the AccessFileName directive contains:
> Before returning the document /usr/local/web/index.html, the server will read
> /.acl, /usr/.acl, /usr/local/.acl and /usr/local/web/.acl for directives
> unless they have been disabled with:
> <Directory "/">
> AllowOverride None
> </Directory>
For 2.2 and below, this was roughly correct, although in fact, overriding can
be disabled for any (sub)directory in the tree. But starting with 2.4, this is
really outdated, since AllowOverride None is now default:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/upgrading.html#run-time
---------------------------
By the way, the description is:
> Name of the distributed configuration file
This should rather read:
> Name(s) of the distributed configuration file(s)
The link for “enabled for that directory” is not particularly clear. I guess
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/en/howto/htaccess.html#troubleshoot would
be better.
