This bug if a tracker for all web applications to provide an apache configuration file compatible with httpd 2.4. http 2.4 use the Require directive for all access control see: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_authz_core.html#require http 2.2 use the allow/deny/order which are emulated by the mod_acces_compat see: httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_access_compat.html But, using old allow/deny/order directives allow to restrict a sub-folder access, it doesn't allow to open a sub-folder (as / directory is protected by mod_authz_core) Here is sample file, compatible with both httpd 2.2 and 2.4 <Directory /usr/share/foo/> <IfModule mod_authz_core.c> # Apache 2.4 Require local </IfModule> <IfModule !mod_authz_core.c> # Apache 2.2 Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1 Allow from ::1 /IfModule> </Directory>
When cut/paste, plese don't forget to fix a little typo in the last </IfModule> :)
I saw two conf files that picked up the typo. /etc/httpd/conf.d/tiquit.conf and /etc/httpd/conf.d/limph.conf .
Additionnal tips Open to everyone Require all granted Close for everyone Require all denied By default, in a group of authorization directives, only one have to succeed (<RequireAny>), see <RequireAll> if you need all to succeed, ex: <RequireAll> Require local Require valid-user </RequireAll>
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug.
