after trying to enable mercurial apache web access on my Ubuntu Server 12.04 box, I've got a 403 Forbidden error when accessing http://my.site.com/mercurial with log:
[Tue Sep 04 01:20:22 2012] [error] [client X.X.X.X] client denied by server configuration: /mercurial/hgweb.cgi
I have added this to /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
ScriptAliasMatch ^/mercurial(.*) /mercurial/hgweb.cgi$1 <Directory /var/www/mercurial> Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews ExecCGI Options None AllowOverride All Order allow,deny Allow from all AuthType Basic AuthName "Repositorio Mercurial" AuthUserFile /mercurial/hgusers Require valid-user </Directory>
This is strange, but apache does't asks me for password when trying to access the web server folder
[web]
style = gitweb
[collections]
/mercurial/repositories = /mercurial/repositories
/mercurial/hgwebconfig.cgi (on filesystem)
config = "/mercurial/hgweb.config"
I have linked /mercurial to /var/www/mercurial
Any advise will be really appreciated.
Thanks
/mercurial
a filesystem path, or is everything in/var/www/mercurial
?
