Bug#779736: dhelp: The requested URL /doc/HTML/index.html was not found on this server
Package: dhelp Version: 0.6.21+nmu6 Followup-For: Bug #779736 When running dhelp in offline mode, it opens up a browser with appropriate file:/// URL path. But the listed "man pages" link seems to be incorrect. The link it refers to is not usable in offline mode. file:///cgi-bin/man/man2html Are manpages expected to be accessible in dhelp in offline mode ? There are also some broken links, which are broken in offline mode only. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_IN.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_IN.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages dhelp depends on: ii doc-base 0.10.7 ii libdata-page-perl 2.02-1 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-1 ii liblocale-gettext-perl1.07-1+b1 ii libtemplate-perl 2.24-1.2+b2 ii liburi-perl 1.71-1 ii perl-modules-5.22 [perl-modules] 5.22.1-9 ii poppler-utils 0.38.0-2 ii pstotext 1.9-6+b1 ii ruby 1:2.3.0+1 ii ruby-bdb 0.6.6-2+b3 ii ruby-debian 0.3.9+b6 ii ruby-gettext 3.1.7-1 ii ruby2.2 [ruby-interpreter]2.2.4-1 ii ruby2.3 [ruby-interpreter]2.3.0-5 ii swish++ 6.1.5-3 ii ucf 3.0036 Versions of packages dhelp recommends: ii chromium [www-browser] 49.0.2623.108-1 ii epiphany-browser [www-browser] 3.18.5-1 ii firefox [www-browser] 46.0~b5-1 ii lynx [www-browser] 2.8.9dev8-4 Versions of packages dhelp suggests: ii apache2 [httpd-cgi] 2.4.18-2 pn catdvi pn info2www ii man2html 1.6g-8 -- no debconf information

Bug#779736: dhelp: The requested URL /doc/HTML/index.html was not found on this server
Hi Giacomo, The apache browser does not enable anymore the /doc alias by default. This is a change made as a response to the CVE-2012-0216 vulnerability report. As a consequence, dhelp does not enable it either during its installation, since that may create a security hole depending on the system's configuration and usage patterns. Thus, it has to be manually configured by the system administrator. This is stated in detail both in /usr/share/doc/dhelp/README.Debian.gz and in /etc/apache2/conf-available/dhelp.conf (the dhelp's apache2 configuration file). In order for this to happen, the relevant Alias ... line(s) in the dhelp's configuration file must be uncommented, the configuration must be enabled with a2enconf and the web server instructed to reload its configuration. If the above steps were not performed, then this is not a bug; it is the intended behaviour. Only if the above steps were performed, and the command still did not work it would be a bug. Tagging it moreinfo. If the error persists after enabling the /doc alias please report; else no action is required, and I will close this bug at the next release of the package.

Package: dhelp Version: 0.6.21+nmu6 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, when I start dhelp from the command line $ dhelp a new tab is opened in the default browser and I'm shown the following message Not Found The requested URL /doc/HTML/index.html was not found on this server.
