httpd error log says Options not allowed here
« on: April 17, 2015, 10:14:15 AM »
I'm a kind of newbie here, but I've been reading every related post to my Apache problem in the forum and also google provides help from some other places
The problem is simple: i've got a Joomla app installation that refuses to run because in the .htaccess includes
Code: [Select]
Options +FollowSymlinks
Options -Indexes
in order to make work the mod_rewrite php module so friendly URL are displayed in the browser.
But the httpd error log file says Options not allowed here...
In the vhost config file there's
Code: [Select]
<Directory "/home/musgoevents/public_html">
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>
Is there any other directive conf file after vhost.conf that is overrinding this <directory> configuration?
Any clue?

I've not tried yet a Wordpress app, but 99% of my hosts are Joomla so your info is not very helpful for me. :'(
Thanks.

Some news. I've managed to solve the problem.
I'm almost 99% sure that vhost.conf is not being loaded in httpd.conf.

As I understand this code at the end of httpd.conf file
Code: [Select]
Include /usr/local/apache/conf.d/*.conf
should include ALL conf files in that folder, that is to say:
domain-redirects.conf
empty.conf
server-status.conf
suphp.conf
system-redirects.conf
vhosts.conf

but I think there's something wrong and no files are included.

So i've included manually at the end of httpd.conf by inserting...
Code: [Select]
Include /usr/local/apache/conf.d/vhosts.conf
and it works. I can visit the home page but I can't browse to a menu (diferent addresses) then
Code: [Select]
No user or group set - set suPHP_UserGroup, referer: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/~musgoeve/

Any clues? :'(

Hello,

I did a test install and it seems to be working fine. There is no need to change anything

Hi Bullten,

Thanks for your comment, but your Joomla installation is not rewritting the URL. Please could you activate it from the Global configuration inside Joomla backpanel (administrator) You also need to rename the htaccess.txt file provided as default to .htaccess.

Then we could check the whole thing again.

Thanks again.
