Apache refuses to start before beeing configured with apacheconf
Last modified: 2013-04-02 00:17:05 EDT
Description of problem: When I configured Apache Virtual Host directories with apacheconf, it refuses to start. It seems a silly bug as it's easy to hand solve, just a sintax error in apache.conf The problem seems to be in the Virtual Host directories Allow and Deny sentences. apacheconf miss the 'from' betwen Allow or Deny and the ip mask or hostname. apache.conf extract before using apacheconf: <Directory "/var/www/html/"> AllowOverride none Allow 10.0.0. Deny 0.0.0.0 Order Allow,Deny </Directory> When apache parses the first Allow it finshes with error. Just writing the 'from' sentence it works as spected: <Directory "/var/www/html/"> AllowOverride none Allow from 10.0.0. Deny from 0.0.0.0 Order Allow,Deny </Directory> Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): unknow but my system is updated via up2date . How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Sorry, I press enter by mistake so I could not finish the bugzilla report. Continuing... How reproducible: setup an Virtual Directory with apacheconf and set the Allow and Deny directives. Then start apache. Steps to Reproduce: 1. open apacheconf 2. set a Virtual Host 3. set Allow and Deny directives Actual results: apache refuses to start Expected results: apache starts Additional info: no more needed (I supose)
