[SLE] Apache Directory Indexing?
How do you set up Apache so that it lists all the files in a users home directory if they don't have an index.html? I have seen this on many sites, but am unable to do this, it always gives me a " permissions denied", I did turn on "FancyIndexes", but that didn't help. Any ideas?

Almost. It's the "Indexes" directive. Koos Pol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- S.C.

What I have in there is: UserDir public_html <Directory "*/public_html"> AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch IncludesNoExec <Limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND> Allow from all </Limit> <Limit PUT DELETE PATCH PROPPATCH MKCOL COPY MOVE LOCK UNLOCK> Order deny,allow Deny from all </Limit> </Directory> I still don't see what I am doing wrong. The root directory, will automatically index it's self just fine (provided it doesn't have an index.html file). The permissions are correct on the users home directory also. In the log files it gives the error: [Thu Feb 3 10:15:42 2000] [error] [client 192.168.17.8] Directory index forbidden by rule: /home/username/public_html I did restart the server after changing the httpd.conf file, but it still doesn't take. The server outputs this to the web browser: Forbidden You don't have permission to access /~user/ on this server. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- Apache/1.3.9 Server at 192.168.17.2 Port 80 In the options I do include indexes and there isn't any other things that is overwriting this, I don't understand what I am doing wrong, any ideas?

Well, the only thing that is different between the way you have it and the way I have it is that I have: <Directory "/*/public_html"> instead of: <Directory "*/public_html"> Mind you, I don't use the UserDir feature of Apache, so I can't really tell you if this works ;-) As far as I can see, there's nothing wrong with that. Just make sure that public_html isn't a symlink to anywhere - I had major problems a few days ago with this...
