The new apache configuration style has got me all mixed up. I am running apache-2.2.8 and I am also trying to install drupal-5.6 (with vhosts). Pointing the browser to localhost works fine, I get the page that says "IT WORKS!", but not the Apache logo and picture of a feather as it used to be the case. Does this mean that my new apache installation is not properly configured?
Pointing to mywebdomain.co.uk/drupal fails with error 403:
===================================
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /drupal/install.php on this server.
Apache Server at mywebdomain.co.uk Port 80
===================================
The only way I have found to get the pages accessible from a browser is to add
this to /etc/apache2/modules.d/00_default_settings.conf file:
================================================
<Directory "/var/www/mywebdomain.co.uk/htdocs">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Directory>
================================================
However, I am not sure that this the correct way to allow access to a vhost.
Where should I define that this vhost (mywebdomain.co.uk) should be
accessible from the Internet?
This is my /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/00_default_vhost.conf file, just in case I am
missing something essential:
================================================
<IfDefine DEFAULT_VHOST>
#Listen 12.34.56.78:80
Listen 80
# Use name-based virtual hosting.
NameVirtualHost *:80
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName localhost
Include /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/default_vhost.include
<IfModule mpm_peruser_module>
ServerEnvironment apache apache
</IfModule>
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName mywebdomain.co.uk
ServerAlias mywebdomain.co.uk *.mywebdomain.co.uk
DocumentRoot /var/www/mywebdomain.co.uk/htdocs
</VirtualHost>
</IfDefine>
================================================
Can you please advise if I need to change anything in the default Gentoo
apache configuration to set it up to work with vhosts and drupal?
