[users@httpd] Problem seeing directory outside of APACHE_HOME

[David Bartmess]

I'm trying to let the users view a directory's contents that is located
outside of /var/www/html. 

 

I've also tried using an .htaccess file with "Options +Indexes" in it in the
root directory of the desired listing.

 

I added the following to my httpd.conf

 

Alias /releases "/data/holding"

 

<Directory "/data/holding">

    AllowOverride All

    Options All Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

</Directory>

 

I've even chmod'd the files to 777 (I know, bad, but I had to try)

 

But all I get when I go to http://myserver.com/releases is a 403 Forbidden
page.

 

Can someone help me???
