[opensuse] apache2 Directory directive
I need to borrow an extra pair of eyes. Does anyone see any significant difference between these two: a) <Directory ~ "^/srv/www/vhosts/[^/]+/htdocs"> b) <Directory "/srv/www/vhosts/*/htdocs"> In apache 2.4. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (9.9°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

At first glance? a) allows only one directory between .../vhosts/ and /htdocs b) allows zero, one, or more directories between .../vhosts/ and /htdocs e.g: /srv/www/vhosts//htdocs, /srv/www/vhosts/test.domain.com/htdocs, /srv/www/vhosts/hijinks/blubber/blah/htdocs in a) that could be extended to exclude some other chars, too. e.g. exclude "_" from vhostname: .../[^/_]+/... - Yamaban -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Are you sure? From 2.4 manual None of the wildcards match a `/' character
e.g: /srv/www/vhosts//htdocs, /srv/www/vhosts/test.domain.com/htdocs, /srv/www/vhosts/hijinks/blubber/blah/htdocs

No. Do you observe different behavior? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yes, much to my surprise. During the weekend, I changed from (b) to (a) when I was experimenting with the "Require" serttings. I ended up rolling back the "Require" changes, but I forgot to change (a) back to (b). With (a), all of a sudden it seemed like .htaccess was not being read. I have not looked into it in any detail yet. With <Directory "/srv/www/vhosts/*/htdocs"> I have a number of settings that apply to all virtual hosts, for instance "Require all granted". -- Per Jessen, Zürich (7.6°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - your free DNS host, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

[^/]+
clearly is limited to only one level.
Yep - in my case, the structure only has one level: /srv/www/vhosts/xxxxxx/htdocs If I had something like /srv/www/vhosts/xxx/yyy/htdocs the regexp version would clearly fail, but as I don't, I can't explain the behaviour. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (11.1°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
