Check the permissions for your user that’s running the webserver to the /home/sympa/static_content directory. It most likely does not have rights.

Subject: [sympa-users] Web server setup question

 

Some background, I have Sympa 6.1.17 setup and working on Ubuntu 12.04 using the binary package, but I ran into issue with the package that will make upgrading difficult at best.

 

I decided to move to a new source install using Ubuntu 14.04 and Sympa 6.1.20.  I have Sympa setup and working, but I’m having issue with WWSympa.  Http://address.centre.edu/wws loads but it can’t access the static content.  All of the CSS and Icons files are 403 forbidden.  I’m sure it has something to do with Apache and the fact that those files are outside of the document root, but nothing I’ve tried has fixed the issue.

 

Here are the pertenatne parts of my site config:

 

<VirtualHost *:80>

        SuexecUserGroup sympa sympa

 

        <Directory "/var/www/html/_sympa_/">

                AllowOverride None

                Options ExecCGI

                Order allow,deny

                Allow from all

        </Directory>

 

        ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log

        CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

 

        Alias /wwsicons /home/sympa/static_content/icons

        ScriptAlias /wws /var/www/html/_sympa_/wwsympa.fcgi

        Alias /static-sympa /home/sympa/static_content

 

Thanks!
