Can not access to Server at Port 8080(Forbidden) Centos 6.5 Apache 2.2.15

I have a Lab server and made 27 accounts for students at /home/info02/

"info02" is a group name and info9042 is an account in example.

I'm info9042 and i wrote a simple html document in "/home/info02/info9042/public_html/index.html" but when i type URL in chrome(Window 10), I get message below. enter image description here

Here is my "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf" file. What should i change code in conf file?

Solution

  • OK, I see several issues here that could be causing your issue(s), moreso than just the httpd config file. So basically your index.html file is a web page (I'm assuming you want to give students access to or someone else). One of the possible problems with what you are doing is, you have the html file (website) located in a folder you made in the /home/ directory. When you created websites, particularly in Apache, they should go under the "/var/www/" directory, because Apache by default sets up security and server settings to use that directory as like a web server directory. So a start to solve your issue would be to move your files/folders under the /var/www folder (or the /var/www/html folder). This can be customized/configured accordingly.

    Another problem you have is that, you have two directory initiatives in your httpd file (you should just have one I believe), and your document root is pointing to /var/www/html. A third problem that could be causing a conflict; typically apache/virtual host is configured to load web pages on port 80, which are you trying to access on port 8080 (localhost). You may nave never specified it to load on localhost, and you may not have the ports open either. Your httpd file (I haven't worked with centos two much) doesn't seem to have the Virtual Host surrounding tags I am familair with, but typically you create a virtual host container that specifies a port to load those web pages over.

    I don't know, I hope that points you in the right direction. I would definitely start by putting those files into the /var/www/html folder if you intend on using this as a webserver/webpage, it's not good practice (not safe) to use the home folder for such applications. Change the config file to point to that directory. If you need to give students access to modify/execute files, you will need to assign their usergroup permissions to work with the files in the /var/ww/html folder.
