How do I get htaccess files to take effect?
Hi,
This is my first time attempting to use htaccess files. I am running
Apache 1.3.20 with PHP v4.0.6 installed as a module. Within Apache's
httpd.conf file I have the following value set:
AccessFileName apache.htaccess
And within an 'Alias' directory I have a file entitled 'apache.htaccess'
which contains the following:
<IfModule mod_php4.c>
php_value include_path = ".;C:/My/PHP/Dir"
</IfModule>
What I am attempting to do is alter PHP's include path 'on the fly'
rather than specifying an overall value within php.ini. The problem I
have though is that the 'include_path' value does not appear to be
picked up. Am I using htaccess files correctly or do I need to alter
some other values within Apache's httpd.conf file?? Would I need to
setup <Directory></Directory> maybe?
If anyone could give me any pointers on this it would be much
appreciated.
Neil

You need to permit the htaccess file to override the httpd.conf - as you
rightly guess, you do this with something like:
<Directory /dir/with/htaccess>
AllowOverride all
</Directory>
Check the docs for details,
