apache config

#
# This is the main Apache HTTP server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/> for detailed information.
# In particular, see 
# <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directives.html>
# for a discussion of each configuration directive.
#
# Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding
# what they do.  They're here only as hints or reminders.  If you are unsure
# consult the online docs. You have been warned.  
#
# Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many
# of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the
# server will use that explicit path.  If the filenames do *not* begin
# with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so "logs/access_log"
# with ServerRoot set to "/usr/local/apache2" will be interpreted by the
# server as "/usr/local/apache2/logs/access_log", whereas "/logs/access_log" 
# will be interpreted as '/logs/access_log'.

#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path.  If you point
# ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to specify a local disk on the
# Mutex directive, if file-based mutexes are used.  If you wish to share the
# same ServerRoot for multiple httpd daemons, you will need to change at
# least PidFile.
#
ServerRoot "/usr/local/apache"

#
# Mutex: Allows you to set the mutex mechanism and mutex file directory
# for individual mutexes, or change the global defaults
#
# Uncomment and change the directory if mutexes are file-based and the default
# mutex file directory is not on a local disk or is not appropriate for some
# other reason.
#
# Mutex default:logs

#
# Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or
# ports, instead of the default. See also the <VirtualHost>
# directive.
#
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to 
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses.

In general there are 3 things to watch out

1. Any redirects in .htaccess file?
2. Any redirects in Apache config (see your webserver or panel config)
3. Any redirect settings in pw backend (template settings for http/https, trailing slash yes/no)

Two of them are likely working against each other and leading to an endless redirection loop

I checked it and updated my htaccess and apache config above

[Macrura]

have you tried using the default htaccess file, that PW ships with?

yes I tried that too, ta has same response

[Macrura]

what about SSL, cloudflare, force www, are you doing any of those things.

Do you have any hooks modifying page path anywhere?

Have you tried migrating the site to a different server, or do you have a copy you can test on a localhost?

Hi,

Is your webiste files placed under the `/usr/local/apache/htdocs` folder ? 

If yes, change the directive `AllowOverride None` to `AllowOverride All` from the Apache config file then restart Apache service: `sudo service apache2 restart`

 

DocumentRoot "/usr/local/apache/htdocs"
<Directory "/usr/local/apache/htdocs">
    #
    # Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
    # or any combination of:
    #   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
    #
    # Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
    # doesn't give it to you.
    #
    # The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
    # http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#options
    # for more information.
    #
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

    #
    # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
    # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
    #   AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
    #
    # AllowOverride None
    AllowOverride All

    #
    # Controls who can get stuff from this server.
    #
    Require all granted
</Directory>

 

Edit: make sure you load the `rewrite` apache module :  `sudo a2enmod rewrite`

Hi @rareyush

This forum's Rich Text Editor has a "Spoiler" feature which can be used by clicking on the "eye" icon in the toolbar. Could you please move your two config file code snippets into "spoilers" to make this thread more readable. Thanks in advance.
