Gentoo, 'forbidden' web page

[twomonkeysayoyo]

Hi, trying to install zoneminder on a fresh gentoo box. Follwed http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.ph ... o_ZioPRoTo (as best possible, had to extrapolate a few steps).

Anyway, ran into some permission issues when trying to start up Zoneminder, and have an inability to get to the Zoneminder site on my box.

When starting with the regular startup script I get:

Code: Select all

Can't connect: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/ZoneMinder/Debug.pm line 349
        ZoneMinder::Debug::Fatal('Can\'t connect: Permission denied') called at /usr/bin/zmdc.pl line 168  

When starting up with the startup script from wiki page above I get the same thing.

/var/log/messages gives me

Code: Select all

Help?

[twomonkeysayoyo]

ok, actually I fixed the error message, but still get

Forbidden

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

when I go to http://MYIP/zoneminder

http://MYIP/ gives me the page that it is supposed to.

I had to change /var/run/zm permissions to apache.apache now zoneminder starts, but I still don't get the webpage.

[twomonkeysayoyo]

looks like I might not be running php on the server. Does apache2 require mod_php or anything?

[twomonkeysayoyo]

ok, so, yes, I was running PHP on the server. however the installed vhost for Gentoo was crap. I don't know if anything else is wrong with it yet, but I had to add

Code: Select all

 <FilesMatch ".(cgi|shtml|phtml|php)$"<></FilesMatch>  (subtract the odd '<' in the first part... don't know why this thing isn't formatting it correctly)

above the <Directory> in the

Code: Select all

/etc/apache2/vhosts.d/10_zoneminder.conf

and now I have what appears to be a console.

[Oo.et.oO]

the code above just plain would not work for me trying to restart apache.

i had to separate the FilesMatch tag onto two lines:

Code: Select all

<FilesMatch>
</FilesMatch>

i can't get the above to format and include the file extension regex either...

anyway, i still get the permissions issue.

i also have two "Directory" tags in zoneminder vhosts

ideas?
