Subject: Re: Apache-WebObjects-MySQL - OS X Client?

Hi all,

In the Leopard Client httpd.conf, I find I need to comment out the Order and Deny directives in Directory / section to prevent a page with:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/WebObjects/myapp.woa/1 on this server.

.... like this......
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
# Order deny,allow
# Deny from all
</Directory>


... that seems like it might not be a secure way to fix this problem even though it seems to be standard practice for development machine setup. Is there a more correct change needed to the default OS X Leopard Client apache2 httpd.conf to allow the gci-bin/WebObjects to work and yet have apache as secure as possible?

Regards, Kieran

No reason to have OS X Server for those needs. You can even use something like WebMin to manage most services by a Web interface. OS X Server is cheap (cost wise) when you use it for many services (Podcast Producer, iCal Server, etc.), but for only Web serving, no need for it.

If I am only using Apache, WebObjects and MySQL, is there any good reason why I would not just use OS X Client for deployment instead of $499 Leopard Server? Heck I prefer doing configuration on the command line anyway. Any thoughts?
