[COBALT RAQ] Making htaccess work on a Cobalt RaQ
Cobalt RaQ 4 server appliances do not allow you to do some of the things you may wish to with .htaccess files by default. To change this behaviour, edit the /etc/httpd/conf/access.conf file and add the following lines:
<Directory /home/sites/site#>
AllowOverride All
Options All
</Directory>Where site# is the number of the site you wish to enable full htaccess usage on.
Alternatively, if you want to enable this htaccess behaviour across all sites on the server, look in the access.conf file for the following section:
<Directory /home/sites/>
# This may also be "None", "All", or any combination of "Indexes",
# "Includes", "FollowSymLinks", "ExecCGI", or "MultiViews".
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes MultiViews
# This controls which options the .htaccess files in directories can
# override. Can also be "All", or any combination of "Options", "FileInfo",
# "AuthConfig", and "Limit"
AllowOverride AuthConfig Indexes LimitAdding the 'All' option to that directive should cure any problems being experienced.
Remember to reload or restart apache after making changes to config files:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd reload
