403 forbidden in subdomain or secondary domain
« on: February 27, 2019, 02:36:55 AM »
Hello, in a fresh installation of CWP the webserver was configured with Nginx & Varnish & Apache (PHP-FPM)

The default domain was configured and wordpress was mounted on it. Everything works OK.

But ... when trying to install wordpress in a subdomain there are problems with the permalinks, showing error 404 and if I load a .htacces file with the wordpress rules, I get error 403 forbidden.

Anyone know what can it be?

You must check you log files before you load your .htaccess file, and see for what files they are pointing.

The logs of the webserver you are using.
You are using Apache webserver, but although you are using nginx as just a reverse proxy, per si nginx can return code "403" too.

So, I would recommend all of these logs, in this order:
=================================
1) /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.error.log
2) /usr/local/apache/domlogs/domain.log
3) /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log
4) /usr/local/apache/logs/access_log
5) /var/log/nginx/error.log
6) /var/log/nginx/access.log
=================================

Thank you very much for your help!

Finally I deleted this line in the vhost (apache) in the domain configuration and it worked.  ;D

<Directory "/xx/xx/xx">
   Options -Indexes -FollowSymLinks
   AllowOverride All Options=ExecCGI,Includes,IncludesNOEXEC,Indexes,MultiViews,SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
</Directory>
