Re: [cobalt-users] RAQ4 / .HTACCESS FILE PROBLEM

["Andy Ross" <andy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I recently had to do a rebuild on our Raq4, and I had a problem with getting
.htaccess files to work (can't remember if it was exactly the same error
message though - there were plenty of other issues clogging my mind at the
time!!).

You might want to check the contents of your access.conf file in
/etc/httpd/conf/

About 52 lines down it is a line that specifies whether Apache will allow
users to override security settings within site folders, by default mine was
set to :-

AllowOverride None

I had to change this to :-

AllowOverride All

Making this change enabled .htaccess for me. Just be sure you are changing
the right setting, on mine the lines immediately before this setting were :-

# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", "FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"

Cheers,

Andy.
