Topic: No Access to /server-manager after upgrade to 5.5 from 5.1

[Mahmood Al-Yousif]

I'm lost.

Just upgraded from 5.1.2 to 5.5 and applied update 1 but I can no longer access the server-manager from a browser on the intranet.

I get 403 (not authorized) although I log in using admin:password. Was working okay on 512.

The server hardware is configured with mirrored disks (software). One service that fails is the sysmon (eneo) which I am about to remove just in case that affects it for some reason.

The same happened before I applied the 1 update on 55.

Any ideas?

Looking in the /var/log/httpd/admin_error_log file I get:

[Wed Jul 17 15:58:50 2002] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: /etc/e-smith/web/panels/manager/html/index.cgi

Check to make sure that the admin server is running (/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-admin status).

I suggest you try re-booting the server.
Also eneo sysmon will not work under 5.5 without modification. see

yes it is running... still 403. It looks to me like an httpd.conf issue more than anything.Lloyd Keen wrote:

thanx, I fixed the issue with sysmon.. still not access to the admin web though

Found that the /etc/httpd/admin-conf/httpd.conf was missing the "ExecCGI" directive in the manager section. Same with the custom template for some reason (don't remember changing that in 512 or any previous installation... bug?)

copied /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/admin-conf/httpd.conf directory to /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/httpd/admin-conf/httpd.conf

Edited 90e-smithAccess20manager and added "ExecCGI" to:


    Options Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI

and


    Options Includes Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI

expand template

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/httpd/admin-conf/httpd.conf

restarted the admin httpd

/sbin/service httpd-admin restart

now I have access to manager panel.

Hope this helps someone.

Thank you so much, that worked.
