jatwood Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 I'm keen to get Uniform Server up to do some dev for Textpattern...Install went fine, server starts, browser hits redirect page - then gives me the 403. I've tried all the common fixes listed at the UniCenter - even swapping listening ports but keep getting told i don't have access! The Perl checker told me i had another server running which may be conflicting, but i'm not aware of anything that should be running - i've always disabled IIS etc. as soon as i install my os...

Ric Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 When Textpattern asked you to create a config.php file were you able to complete this step? The Perl checker! I assume you ran this before starting Uniform Server, it checks to see if port 80 is in use. Hence will detect US if that is running.

olajideolaolorun Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Is there any htaccess file in the text pattern directory? Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Hi Olajide, gave Textpattern a quick road test and it does pop in an htaccess file. For any one that is interested the problem is the following line, it needs to be un-commented as shown: Options +FollowSymLinks Complete htaccess file should look like this: #DirectoryIndex index.php index.html Options +FollowSymLinks#Options -Indexes RewriteEngine On #RewriteBase /relative/web/path/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d RewriteRule ^(.+) - [PT,L] RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php #php_value register_globals 0 General note: I have seen several cases where Rewrite is used in htaccess files and the lineOptions +FollowSymLinksis missing which effectively informs Apache to ignore mod_rewrite. Shows up in the log files as: [client 127.0.0.1] Options FollowSymLinks or SymLinksIfOwnerMatch is off which implies that RewriteRule directive is forbidden: W:/www/textpattern/ Apache log files are located in folder:*\Uniform Server\udrive\usr\local\apache2\logs All the bestRic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
