The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

403 Forbidden on Virtual Hosts config using Webmin & RHEL (CentOS)

Asked by dr-tzolkin in Apache Web Server, Tivoli Storage Manager, Server Side Includes (SSI)

Tags: forbidden, 403, centos, webmin, virtual

Below is a snippet from my conf file, and everything looks right, and Apache starts fine.  But when I try to access the directory, anywhere, this is what I get...

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/2.0.52 (CentOS) mod_perl/1.99_16 Perl/v5.8.5 DAV/2 PHP/5.0.4 mod_python/3.1.3 Python/2.3.4 mod_ssl/2.0.52 OpenSSL/0.9.7a SVN/1.1.1 Server at test-dark.net Port 80

<VirtualHost *>
DocumentRoot "/var/www/virtual/test-dark.net/html"
ServerName test-dark.net
LogLevel warn
ErrorLog logs/test-dark.net-error_log
TransferLog logs/test-dark.net-access_log
<Directory "/var/www/virtual/test-dark.net/html">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks        
AllowOverride All
order deny,allow
allow from 127.0.0.1
allow from ::1
allow from all
DirectoryIndex index.php
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>


Furthermore, if I hard code the ErrorLog path to /var/www/virtual/test-dark.net/logs/xxxx .... Apache fails to start, complaining that the DocumentRoot does not exist.  Please advise on how to correctly set-up my tree for virtual hosts so that abc.com and xyz.net can live in /var/www/virtual/abc.com and have users of different names for security reasons.  I don't want to mod_user for that reason.

Thanks in advance,

Dr.Tzolkin

PS>  CentOS 4.1 Final + Apache 2.0.52 + PHP 5.04 + Webmin
