Topic: How to allow index of ibay

[calisun]

I know that indexing of ibay from the web when there is no index.html has been disabled for security reasons, but how do I enable it for one specific ibay?
I have a password protected ibay from where I want to allow employees to download documents when they are outside of the office. I will frequently add and delete files, so I don't want to mess with constantly creating/ recreating html file to list files.

ModIndexer sounds like it would suit your needs, but without the security risk of having everyone see all the contents of an iBay

Do a serch for ModIndexer and here to get it working on SME7

There would be no security risk in my case because the ibay I want to index is password protected, but I will give ModIndexer a try.

I have followed the instruction in the link to enable ModIndexer, but now after reboot, I can't access server-manager, webmail or my main web page.

What do your logs say? can you undo the changes and it works?!

[dsemuk]

Which Modindex Contrib did you install?

And you followed the instructions on how to enable mod perl?

I know that indexing of ibay from the web when there is no index.html has been disabled for security reasons, ...

The default setting has Indexes enabled:

/etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/90e-smithAccess40ibays

Code: [Select]

       my $indexes = $properties{'Indexes'} || "enabled";
        $OUT .= "\n";
        $OUT .= "#--------------------------------------------------\n";
        $OUT .= "# $key ibay directories ($properties{'Name'})\n";
        $OUT .= "#--------------------------------------------------\n";

        $OUT .= "\n";
        $OUT .= "<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/$key/html>\n";
        $OUT .= "    Options None\n";
        $OUT .= "    Options +Indexes\n" if ($indexes eq 'enabled');
You must have some other issue or misconfiguration.

Is there actually a version of modindexer that works on SME7?

I installed gjz-mitel-modindex-0.0.4-4.noarch but it has broken my webserver.

I am now unable to access the server manager webmail or any ibays.

I have uninstalled the rpm but this has not helped.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

OK after further investigation the problem seems to stem frpm mod_perl if I disable it the webserver then behaves correctly but when enabled everything stops displaying.

Any thoughts anyone or better still could someone else try enabling mod_perl and see if it kills there web server.

Same conclusion here, mod_perl kills access to server-manager, webmail and my web page.
Disabling mod_perl returns everything back to normal

I'm waiting for pre4 to hit the servers, once I have that up and running I will enable mod_perl to see if it still has the same effect on Server Manager etc.

Hi all

First what version of 7.0 is eveyone exibiting the problem.

I seem to recall a problem with phpsysinfo with the access settings

and this appear to be evolving into the same issue.

I have not installed modindex as of yet so I can not undertake investigation.

[dsemuk]

On 7pre3 here but just enabling mod_perl as described here:

http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=30942.0

The problems are as described.
