[users@httpd] SSI help

Good day to you all

Im am newbie to Apache but will try and explain my problem as much as i can.
I have a localhost Apache installation.
I am trying to implement custom error messages returned to the client.
Example, I would like to display my own 403
forbidden error message when a user tries to access restricted
content. In this message i would like to display the client's
IP address and maybe time of access.

I tried to follow the SSI document in Apache website but i still cannot get
the values for these parameters. Could anyone please
help.


Thank you and best regards


OMR

Hi

thanx a lot for your response. I have made the following modification to the
apache2.conf file so that i can use SSI using the ErrorDocument:

   Alias /error/ "/usr/share/apache2/error/"

   <Directory "/usr/share/apache2/error">
        AllowOverride None
        Options MultiViews +IncludesNoExec FollowSymLinks
    AddType text/html .shtml
    <FilesMatch "\.shtml[.$]">
        SetOutputFilter INCLUDES
    </FilesMatch>
        AddOutputFilter Includes html
        AddHandler type-map var
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
        LanguagePriority en cs de es fr it nl sv pt-br ro
        ForceLanguagePriority Prefer Fallback
    </Directory>

    ErrorDocument 400 /error/HTTP_BAD_REQUEST.html.var
    ErrorDocument 401 /error/HTTP_UNAUTHORIZED.html.var
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/HTTP_FORBIDDEN.html.var
    ErrorDocument 403 /error/HTTP_FORBIDDEN.shtml

In the /HTTP_FORBIDDEN.shtml file i have something like

<HTML>

<HEAD>

<TITLE>403 Forbidden</TITLE>

</HEAD>

<BODY>

<H1>Forbidden</H1>

<HR>

You do not have permission to perform the requested action.

There is either potential harm or the directory is read-protected.

<P>



Your IP address is <!--#echo var="REMOTE_ADDR" --><br>

<HR>

</BODY>

</HTML>

This is just for educational purposes and i am experimenting.

Thank you

OM Raesima

Show us what you've done so far. Remember that the variables need to
have REDIRECT_ prepended:
