Description Marcell Lengyel (reporter) maemo.org

2009-07-07 14:22:30 UTC

Steps to reproduce the problem:

- Create a /www/icons/ folder in a garage projects's SVN and upload some
content there (for example a file called next.png)
- Check the file using
https://garage.maemo.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php/www/icons/?root=<projectname>
and verify that the file exists.
- Try to access http://<projectname>/garage.maemo.org/icons/next.png

The last steps returns 404

The reason is that in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf the /icons/ is an alias to
/usr/share/apache2/icons/ (/error/ is an other one) and it always overrides the
user's own /icons/ path.

The enhancement request part: is it possible to configure apache or gforge
somehow to leave alone /icons/ for *.garage.maemo.org where * != www ?

I could not figure out a solution which would distinguish between the apache
icons and the projects' icons folder. So instead I disabled the apache icons
alias, since we don't use it. Now the projects can have their own icons folder. 

See my test: http://test7.garage.maemo.org/icons/
