Fix User Websites not being served correctly.

Closed this issue · 7 comments

UPL has hosted user websites in the past, and it currently isn't working correctly.

How is this different than the ~/public/html directory given by the CS department?

It's not, except that users would have it "forever" even after they graduate and whatnot. Either way if it's a feature that was working at some point maybe it's worth fixing.

Would CSL have to handle this?

No, we serve them, and its broke due to some Linux permission issue I believe.

Fixed, I hope?

/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/userdir.conf had:

<Directory /home/*/public_html>

Was supposed to be:

<Directory /home/*/*/public_html>

My home directory now serves at ~/public_html

There's still a line about this in the README. Ok to remove?

If it is fixed, I'd def edit the readme
