symlink problem... Symbolic link not allowed

Hi,

At the moment i´m migrating sites to new hardware. copying files and making stuff work. I use geeklog in many cases.

I´ve made geeklog work by replacing the /local/www/web#/web dir to a symlink pointing to /local/www/web#/geeklog/public_html Normaly that works. but now on one particular site i get a forbidden error and this is in my log:

[Wed Jan 10 22:34:00 2007] [error] [client 123.123.123.123] Symbolic link not allowed: /local/www/web#/web

It´s a mystery to my why one site works while another does not.

Do you have in either apache2.conf or a .htaccess or the ISPConfig web directives specified

Code:

Options +FollowSymLinks

for this directory?

 

I'll try it. However i did nothing of this kind to other dirs or files for the sites that do work. It's also a bit strange that the error is about the document root (the /local/www/web#/web dir itself)

I would expect that the directives would be active for only the /local/www/web#/web subdirs. But that maybe false...

Thanks for looking into this... I think the problem is with the website i'm trying to setup.

I tried to link to a new dir with just one html file, that works perfectly. Sooooo the problem is nog ispconfig related.

Again thanks for your time.
