[rt-users] one small thing left and my installation will be complete!

Hiya again.


I have gone through and set up the httpd.conf file as directed by the 
instructions but still can't seem to figure out how to get it to load 
index.html.


I tried settings Options Indexes to the default even.  I doublechecked that 
the DirectoryIndex has index.html listed (it does by default).   Heck,  I 
even went as far as adding bleh.html and putting in a simple bleh.html file 
in there.

After that all didn't work, I tried putting the settings directly in the 
VirtHost definition (een though I really don't want them there).  I still 
didn't want to work.

It looks like it just doesn't read that setting.

if I specify index.html it is great.  No problem.  I load the page,  log in 
as root,  have changed the password through the web interface for root.  It 
is all good.  but anytime I click a link that has a directory specified I 
get the same error:

You don't have permission to access /DirectoryName/ on this server.

The apache logs say:

Directory index forbidden by rule: /usr/local/rt/share/html/DirectoryName/

I have triple checked permissions all the way up the path (644 should be 
enough on the index.html file shouldn't it?  and 755 on the directories 
themselves?)

I don't know what I am doing now.

This is using the distribution RH9 packages,  so apache 2.0.40.   I am 
relatively familiar with 1.3 syntax.


My VirtualHost Entry is as follows:



<VirtualHost *>
    ServerName issues.nationalpayroll.com
    DocumentRoot /usr/local/rt/share/html/
    AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
    PerlModule Apache2 Apache::compat
    PerlModule Apache::DBI
    PerlRequire /usr/local/rt/bin/webmux.pl
#    Options Indexes
#    DirectoryIndex index.html
    <Location />
        SetHandler perl-script
        PerlHandler RT::Mason
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>



Once I have this problem sorted,  I think I am ready to publish a blog on 
what I did to make this go on RH9.  After the wonderful responses I got from 
my first post to this group,  I found it wasn't really all that hard.   
Thanks for all the help thus far!

Regards,

nemir
