On my new install USERDIR is not working.
When I try http://localhost/~gottlieb, firefox says
"you don't have permission to access /~gottlieb"
and the apache error log says
"client denied by server configuration: /local/allan/gottlieb/public_html"
The file permissions are ok since both
file:///home/gottlieb/public_html/index.html and
file:///home/gottlieb/public_html
work fine.
So I guess I screwed up the apache install, in particular USERDIR.
eix shows userdir (see below)
/etc/conf.d/apache2 has it (see below, diffs = with my working install)
I have restarted apache, shutdown the machine overnight, reinstalled
apache, but still no go.
What step did I foolishly miss?
thanks,
allan

newlap gottlieb # cat /etc/conf.d/apache2
# /etc/conf.d/apache2: config file for /etc/init.d/apache2
# ajg: Added support for USERDIR, i.e., ~/public_html
# When you install a module it is easy to activate or deactivate the modules
# and other features of apache using the APACHE2_OPTS line. Every module should
# install a configuration in /etc/apache2/modules.d. In that file will be an
# <IfDefine NNN> directive where NNN is the option to enable that module.
#
# Here are the options available in the default configuration:
#
# AUTH_DIGEST Enables mod_auth_digest
# AUTHNZ_LDAP Enables authentication through mod_ldap (available if USE=ldap)
# CACHE Enables mod_cache
# DAV Enables mod_dav
# ERRORDOCS Enables default error documents for many languages.
# INFO Enables mod_info, a useful module for debugging
# LANGUAGE Enables content-negotiation based on language and charset.
# LDAP Enables mod_ldap (available if USE=ldap)
# MANUAL Enables /manual/ to be the apache manual (available if USE=docs)
# MEM_CACHE Enables default configuration mod_mem_cache
# PROXY Enables mod_proxy
# SSL Enables SSL (available if USE=ssl)
# STATUS Enabled mod_status, a useful module for statistics
# SUEXEC Enables running CGI scripts (in USERDIR) through suexec.
# USERDIR Enables /~username mapping to /home/username/public_html
#
#
# The following two options provide the default virtual host for the HTTP and
# HTTPS protocol. YOU NEED TO ENABLE AT LEAST ONE OF THEM, otherwise apache
# will not listen for incomming connections on the approriate port.
#
# DEFAULT_VHOST Enables name-based virtual hosts, with the default
# virtual host being in /var/www/localhost/htdocs
# SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST Enables default vhost for SSL (you should enable this
# when you enable SSL)
#
APACHE2_OPTS="-D DEFAULT_VHOST -D USERDIR -D INFO -D SSL -D SSL_DEFAULT_VHOST
-D LANGUAGE"
# Extended options for advanced uses of Apache ONLY
# You don't need to edit these unless you are doing crazy Apache stuff
# As not having them set correctly, or feeding in an incorrect configuration
# via them will result in Apache failing to start
# YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
# PID file
#PIDFILE=/var/run/apache2.pid
# timeout for startup/shutdown checks
#TIMEOUT=10
# ServerRoot setting
#SERVERROOT=/usr/lib64/apache2
# Configuration file location
# - If this does NOT start with a '/', then it is treated relative to
# $SERVERROOT by Apache
#CONFIGFILE=/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
# Location to log startup errors to
# They are normally dumped to your terminal.
