Advisory Content (Page 2 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Solution:
Install the most recent field-test file for 6.5 SP2 WebAccess ("FWA652E.EXE" or later) or apply vendor workaround.


-- Vendor workaround --

Edit the permissions section of the "GWAPACHE.CONF" file just under where the DocumentRoot is specified:

By default, that section reads:

# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
# permissions.
#
<Directory "/">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>

That section should read:

<Directory "/">
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order deny,allow
deny from all
</Directory>
