T3D and Apache help if possible [Resolved]

by Tarly · in Torque 3D Beginner · 01/06/2013 (11:58 pm) · 4 replies

Hello all

In Apache httpd.conf I have a Dir set up with:

<Directory "C:/webserver/htdocs/custom">

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

</Directory>



I thought this would allow anything and everything to be done in this directory. Open Dir with no restrictions. This is not the case. and I can't figure out any other permissions I need to open it up.
Can Anyone help me out please?

Perhaps the Apache HTTP Server documentation would be a good place to look for instructions on configuring the Apache HTTP Server. I'm not really sure from your post what exactly that question has to do with T3D....

I am using a patcher to patch T3D.. if I can get it to work.. I thought I would post a link here. But.. right now... I can't see to figure out how to configure the permissions for the updater Dir in Apache... it needs to be off the root, and be open.

I usually set up each directory individually with the ".htaccess" file.

so paste this into a blank text file and rename it to ".htaccess" (without the quotes) then upload it to your directory.
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

this allows access to the directory from a browser, if you want to run scripts you need to add "+Includes ExecCGI" to the options, plus you need to change the CHMOD property's on your .cgi's to Execute as well as read.

Am not sure if this is what your after but hope it helps :-)

Thank you Robert. I found thatthe directory is open as I wanted... I went to the full url then added the dir I was wondering if it was open.. and I can double click it and see the files.

Thank you very much for your input.
