Apache Status blocked

[twpmarket]

Can someone tell me why I can't access the "Apache Status" option on apanel? I get this message:

"You don't have permission to access /status on this server."

I have edited .htaccess and commented out the three lines around deny to open my IP address, but this may not be related.

Suggestions? comments?

Thats because the /status is only accessable by localhost under the httpd.conf file.

 

Change this setting in the httpd.conf file:

 

<Location /status>
   SetHandler server-status
   Order deny,allow
   Deny from all
   Allow from localhost
</Location>

 

Change it to what you want, but please be aware that this is your option and is risky...

Thank, I'll try this and get back to you if I still have trouble. Risky, probably, but hey it's just my whole development code, guess I should do a backup first...

Hmmm, my http.conf file is the same as you quote below for /status (not changed from original installation). Same is true of the <Location /info> (Allow remote server configuration reports).

 

I'm assuming that using the Uniform Server apanel appears as a request from localhost. which is "allowed" under /status and /info. I get a 403 "You don't have permission to access /status (/info) on this server." when using apanel's menu link to "Apache Status" or "Apache Info".

 

Who, or what, should be allowed in http.conf so that apanel's links will work? I thought that apanel has localhost priviledges? No?

What are you saying? I told you that access to /status and /info is restricted to localhost only.. Clicking the link from Admin Panel 2 should work perfect is you are accessing that from http://localhost/apanel/

 

If you want access to it from outsideee localhost thn change that code i gave to you to what you want... like: Allow from All and remove the Deny from All part.

 

Like this:

 

<Location /status>
  SetHandler server-status
  Order deny,allow
  Allow from all
</Location>

Ah, got it, thanks. and I see when you say it is 'risky", at least this machine is not publically accessible.

And, no, it did not work from localhost until I "allowed from all". But, I'm in now and can work on it. thanks again.

No Problem

[Alpha-Hasi]

Sorry, I have the same problem:

 

The relevant lines in the conf-file are set to "Allow from localhost" (by default), but after clicking (for example) "Apache Status" on the panel is the result is a window like below: 403 - forbidden.

I would prefer not to set the lines to "allow from all" ...

 

Any other idea?

 

In addition I couldn't change the configurations with the forms in the panel, but this may be a future feature?

 

[sorry for my English, I'm still learning...]

[olajideolaolorun]

Are you access it from http://localhost? If you are, then it must be a proxy or router problem.....

[Alpha-Hasi]

I have "Windows2000 Prof" and the UniformServer is "installed" as it is recommended, no changes in the configs. There is no router and there is no proxy. I have installed a firewall (Sygate Personal), but it doesn't make any change, when I stop the firewall working. And: All accesses are accepted (I see my pages, programmed in php with location localhost) beside the named apache-files. (On the picture you could see the right path).

 

It's the same problem as above, but twpmarket has chanched his config-server-status to "Allow from all". That's not a solution for me.

 

But it is not a big tragedy, I could read the config-files in my editor...

Try adding 127.0.0.1?

[olajideolaolorun]

hmmm.. i have to get to the bottom of this.. computer names not being refered to as localhost.. most be the network card or something....

[NoGood@This]

I've had the same problem after installing US3.3.

 

Try adding 127.0.0.1?

 

And doing the above fixed it, replaced localhost with 127.0.0.1, bingo! job done
