    Hey all -

    I've having a heck of a time attaching seperate drives to my apache server. I have tried soft symlinks as well as adding .conf files to my Ubuntu 10.10 apache2 server httpd.conf file. The error log for apache2 simply says "/var/www/media does not exist". My httpd.conf file contains the following:

    Code:
    Alias /music/ /media/FunkMedia2/music
    <Directory /media/FunkMedia2/music>
            Options Indexes MultiViews
            AllowOverride None
    </Directory>
    
    What exactly am I doing wrong here?

    What are the outputs of
    Code:
    df -h
    and
    Code:
    mount
    ?

    So, the solution to this problem was to make the FunkMedia2 folder eXecutable to the 'Other' group. I'm not comprehending that completely, but it seemed to fix the problem. Considering I'm not actually executing anything, just reading - that's what throwing me off. But I'm glad I figured it out finally. :)

    Thank you!
