Apache – client denied by server configuration

Linux, Ubuntu

So, on my recent DO droplet I had to install Apache (2.4.10) to run a web application for a client.

root@digitalwhores:/home/webroot# apache2 -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.10 (Ubuntu)
Server built: Mar 9 2015 11:53:48

After configuring the subdomain/virtual host I was getting a 403 for it.
This was the error on the error.log…

[Thu Jul 16 21:00:28.919036 2015] [authz_core:error] [pid 17411] [client 84.XXX.XXX.XXX:53565] AH01630: client denied by server configuration: /home/webroot/www/public/index.php

So, this is my current snap of my domain.conf – working -.

 <Directory /home/webroot/www/public/>
 Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
 AllowOverride all
 #Order allow,deny
 #allow from all
 Require all granted
 </Directory>

Host key verification failed.

Linux, 
RSA host key for 188.166.XXX.XXX has changed and you have requested strict checking.
Host key verification failed.

So, I’v rebuild a droplet on DigitalOcean, and logically, when I tried to ssh it, SSH Keys were different…. Easy so solve it…

On a Mac OSX, on console, lets change to root

sudo bash

Lets edit known_hosts

nano /Users/YOUR_USERNAME/.ssh/known_hosts

Remove the entry of the respective host/ip.
Save and exit nano, exit root.. and ssh it! 🙂

PHP – 500 internal server error – cPanel

cPanel, Linux, PHP, , ,

I’v been struggling for hours to solve a weird problem with PHP in a cPanel environment.

This is how my log (/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log) looks like

[Tue Dec 30 21:13:09 2014] [error] [client 88.94.5.xxx] SoftException in Application.cpp:601: Directory "/home/dee/subdomains/www2.domain.com/members" is writeable by group
[Tue Dec 30 21:13:09 2014] [error] [client 88.94.5.XXX] Premature end of script headers: index.php
[Tue Dec 30 21:13:09 2014] [error] [client 88.94.5.XXX] File does not exist: /home/dee/subdomains/www2.domain.com/500.shtml

I thought that was some bad configuration on .htaccess … but that was wrong!
On some environments we need to have the right file/directory permissions so it work…

  • files: 644
  • directories: 755
