Question

This might be a newbie question but… I configured a SSL site in Apache as follows:

NameVirtualHost *:443

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName dev.wonnova.com
    DocumentRoot "/var/www/myapp/wwwroot"

    SSLEngine on

    SSLProtocol -all +TLSv1 +SSLv3
    SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM:!aNULL:+SHA1:+MD5:+HIGH:+MEDIUM

    SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/mycert.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/mycert.key

    <IfModule mime.c>
        AddType application/x-x509-ca-cert      .crt
        AddType application/x-pkcs7-crl         .crl
    </IfModule>

    Alias /mydir/ "/var/www/myapp/mydir"

    <Directory "/var/www/myapp/mydir">
        SSLRequireSSL
        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
        AllowOverride all
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

The thing is that no matter which URL I request, I always get the contents of /var/www/myapp/wwwroot/index.php (i.e. index.php in DocumentRoot directory). It happens for these URLs, as an example:

 - https://mysite/index.php
 - https://mysite/mydir/index.php
 - https://mysite/mydir/style.css
 - https://mysite/mydir/script.js

On the other hand, if I create an index2.php file in DocumentRoot directory, it shows correctly:

 - https://mysite/index2.php

I guess there’s something that is wrong with my Apache configuration.

Answer 1

I solved the issue, I had to remove the last slash of the first part of the Alias line.

This was wrong:

Alias /mydir/ "/var/www/myapp/mydir"

This is right:

Alias /mydir "/var/www/myapp/mydir"
