ISPConfig and Ruby

[antun]

Hi Falko,

I'm not sure how this happened, but I had already responded to a different thread. I received an email notification that someone had responded to a thread I was subscribed to, and I clicked the link in the email, and posted my reply there. I had never posted on that other thread (entitled "After adding "Include vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf" httpd won;t startup"), and I don't remember ever reading it, let alone subscribing to it. Does Till have the ability to subscribe me to another thread?

Anyway, here are the results from doing the following:

1) Rename Vhosts_ispconfig.conf to Vhosts_ispconfig.conf.bak
2) Rename Vhosts_ispconfig.conf_30-06-08_10-27-34 to Vhosts_ispconfig.conf
3) Run:

httpd -t

I ran the http -t command like you said (thanks for the pointer, by the way) and it gave the following error:

Syntax error on line 323 of /etc/apache2/vhosts/Vhosts_ispconfig.conf:
AllowOverride not allowed here

There was an AllowOverride All on line 323. I removed it, ran httpd -t again, then got a Syntax OK message.

What's the right next step here - should I reinstall ISPConfig, leaving the current vhost file in place, or can I just edit that vhost file?

BTW, how would the AllowOverride All get into that file - is it possible that it was added there because I added it to the Apache Directives section of the particular site in ISPConfig?

My main question now is: what should I do now? If I remove the offending line (AllowOverride All), then what triggers ISPConfig to reset? Do I have to reinstall it?

Thanks,

Antun

Thanks all for your help. I got this resolved, but the discussion's on another thread, so here's the link:

Oh, and as a temporary workaround I had created a file called antun-ruby in /etc/apache2/conf.d with the following settings to "force" the mod_ruby option for that site:

<IfModule mod_ruby.c>
  <Directory /var/www/web9/web>
    Options +ExecCGI
  </Directory>
  RubyRequire apache/ruby-run
  #RubySafeLevel 0
  <Files *.rb>
    SetHandler ruby-object
    RubyHandler Apache::RubyRun.instance
  </Files>
  <Files *.rbx>
    SetHandler ruby-object
    RubyHandler Apache::RubyRun.instance
  </Files>
</IfModule>
