Override error 403 using .htaccess

[dodimar]

Hi,

Was trying to create a folder where I can use .htaccess to require user to login to access the folder. I was able to create the .htaccess things. However, after logging in, ISPconfig spits out a ERROR 403 Forbidden!

Any way I can override this?

Thanks.

Can you post the vhost configuration? Is there an index file in the web folder?

[dodimar]

There are no index file in the web folder since I just want to put files on it that some users can access.

Will post the vhost config later, I can't ssh from our office.

This is the vhost of that specific domain.

<Directory /var/www/domain.tld>
    AllowOverride None
    Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>

<VirtualHost *:80>
    DocumentRoot /var/www/clients/client3/web9/web

    ServerName domain.tld
    ServerAlias *.domain.tld
    ServerAdmin webmaster@domain.tld

    ErrorLog /var/log/ispconfig/httpd/domain.tld/error.log

    ErrorDocument 400 /error/400.html
    ErrorDocument 401 /error/401.html
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/403.html
    ErrorDocument 404 /error/404.html
    ErrorDocument 405 /error/405.html
    ErrorDocument 500 /error/500.html
    ErrorDocument 503 /error/503.html

    <Directory /var/www/domain.tld/web>
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
    <Directory /var/www/clients/client3/web9/web>
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride All
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>

    # suphp enabled
    <Directory /var/www/clients/client3/web9/web>
        suPHP_Engine on
        # suPHP_UserGroup web9 client3
        AddHandler x-httpd-suphp .php .php3 .php4 .php5
        suPHP_AddHandler x-httpd-suphp
    </Directory>


</VirtualHost>

That's the problem. Either put an index file in the directory, or add Indexes to the Options directive of that vhost - see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options
