[users@httpd] .htaccess (again) and a 500 error!
Hi,
Ive run into an odd problem. First off Im running OS X Client 10.3.8
and Apache/1.3.33 running on Port 80.
That said...onto the ODD problem.
Ive enabled directory security on ONE of my hosted domains
[beta.xdomain.com] (of which I host about 60 or so on just this one
machine), and the very first domain in the list keeps coming up with
a 500 Server Error [www.adomain.com], and in the error log Im getting:
[Fri Oct 28 15:45:17 2005] [alert] [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] /Library/
WebServer/Documents/~adomain.com/.htaccess: ErrorDocument not allowed
here.
There is NO ErrorDocument in the vHost Directive for this domain
(there should be, but there isn't).
When I remove the security from beta.xdomain.com the error above goes
away.
What I have discovered is that because adomain.com is the first in
the list of hosted domains, that its the only one being affected. No
other domains are being affected. So by example...
www.adomain.com <-- 500 error
www.bdomain.com (works)
www.cdomain.com (works)
etc.
beta.xdomain.com (security enabled)
I would think that if Im getting a 500 error for ONE domain (Internal
Server Error) that I'd get them for all of them...not just the first
in the list....
What am I doing wrong ?

Nevermind...FOUND IT!
For those of you wondering and have no idea where to look.
The .HTACCESS file is located in the directory that you're trying to
protect.
My problem stemmed from the fact that I inherited a directory from
another provider and that directory contained a .htaccess file. I
removed it and all is well.

Your error message states:
/Library/WebServer/Documents/~adomain.com/.htaccess: ErrorDocument not allowed
here.
So I would assume, although I know very little about Macs, that you would find
it in:
/Library/WebServer/Documents/~adomain.com/

Look again at the error message. It is referring to an .htaccess
file, not httpd.conf. You have an ErrorDocument directive in the
.htaccess file.

I suspect that this is because you are changing the AllowOverride
directive. AllowOverride has nothing directly to do with "security",
but affects whether apache will read .htaccess files.
