Hello all, I am installing Hobbit for the first time in over a year..( I am still running RC5 at work in production !! ) and I am having a stupid error that I could use help on. I can't see the web interface! I get :
You don't have permission to access /hobbit/ on this server
but every directory and every file has 777 permissions on it!
any ideas please??
thanks
Kevin

Sounds like an apache configuration problem. Did you include the provided hobbit-apache.conf file in your webserver configuration?
(BTW, you'd better tighten up those 777 permissions. Hackers love those).

Hi Henrik, it's been a long time. Yes, I did include the hobbit-apache.conf piece in the httpd.conf file. (and I only made the permissions 777 to troubleshoot this), but it makes no difference. It is running on RHEL 4.0, apache 2.0, and I can't see what else would be restricting permission to /hobbit/. Got any ideas?
Best regards

Hi,
Have you had a look at your error log ? Usually you can find a pointer there.

Hi Stephane, Thanks for the reply. Yes, I checked the error log but it was about as useful as screen doors on a submarine. Here is the result of every time I try to access the page:
[Wed Sep 13 03:59:24 2006] [error] [client 10.10.0.3] (13)Permission denied: access to /hobbit/ denied
I already know that my access is denied....I just want to know why. I am going through httpd.conf one line at a time now.
any other input much appreiated

You do have at least a+x access on every directory in the path to the hobbit directory, right?? Or equivalent group access for the webserver group?? If not, your web server won't be able to traverse the path to get there...

Yes sir I do. I went one step further and gave every directory from / to the hobbit directory 777 permissions. How could access be denied?
