Description Branislav Náter 2021-04-07 16:48:03 UTC 
There's seems to be broken links on httpd-2.4.46-9.el9

[core:error] [pid 15353:tid 15499] [client ::1:38234] AH00037: Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /usr/share/httpd/noindex/index.html

noindex/index.html points to fedora-testpage/index.html

# ll /usr/share/httpd/noindex/index.html
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 32 Feb  3 20:27 /usr/share/httpd/noindex/index.html -> ../../fedora-testpage/index.html

Description of problem:
Today httpd and nginx both provide a default index.html page.  This page basically says "You've got this working".

The page content is not terribly useful.  If the page came out of a fedora-release rpm it could contain links to release notes or documentation on how to configure relevant services.

This should reduce the maintenance cost for the httpd/nginx package maintainers as they would no longer need to update the page to match the fedora look and feel over time.  At the same time it would give the fedora artwork folks greater ability to provide defaults for several applications.

We should also use new Apache logo. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1934739
