[users@httpd] Directory listing problem

[Aaron Carr <aa...@aaroncarr.com>]

Ok...here's the problem.  This is one of those rare times when I actually
DO want directory listing turned on, because I'm creating a file
repository.

I using httpd-2.0.49-4 on Fedora Core 2.

I've added the following to my httpd.conf file:

<VirtualHost mirrors.domain.com>
DocumentRoot "/u01/linux"
ServerName mirrors.domain.com
</VirtualHost>

<Directory "/u01/linux">
Options +Indexes
AllowOverride None
Order Deny,Allow
Allow from all
</Directory>

However, when I try to connect, hoping to get a file listing, I just get
directed to the default site, and in the error_log, the following entry is
written:

Directory index forbidden by rule: /u01/linux/

I've searched google repeatedly for the last couple hours, but so far
everything I've seen shows that this should work.

What little detail am I missing?

Thanks in advance for your help.

This means that some other Options directive is overriding the one you
just placed.  Look through httpd.conf, and Included conf file, and all
your .htaccess files for all the Options directives, and find the one
that is overriding this one.  See also:
