Hi all
i need you help as i face the bellow error when i change the Directory “You don’t have permission to access / on this server.” i change the working directory on /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf <VirtualHost *:80> ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost DocumentRoot “/media/clerck/Downloads/” ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined </VirtualHost>
&& /etc/apache2/apache2.conf <Directory /home/clerck/Downloads/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>
on the second file i only change the /var/www/html to the new directory
i even try to give the Directory 777 permission but still the same error

First of all change this line
<Directory /home/clerck/Downloads/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>
to this line
<Directory /media/clerck/Downloads/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>
And if it doesn’t work try to add those lines at /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
<Directory /media/clerck/> Options Indexes FollowSymLinks AllowOverride None Require all granted </Directory>
sorry i miss with the file name, it didn’t work untill i apply this command sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /media/clerck/Downloads
i face another issue when i try to use the real Directory, i change it on both files /etc/apache2/apache2.conf && /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-deftault.conf but the error appear again and "chown -R www-data:www-data " didn’t solve the issue this from log clerck@clerck:/media/clerck/5b7ea25c-624b-4048-9c50-d3e76c9dc2e6/repos$ tailf /var/log/apache2/error.log [Mon Jun 05 16:50:02.872782 2017] [core:error] [pid 17501:tid 140372126148352] (13)Permission denied: [client 127.0.0.1:50530] AH00035: access to / denied (filesystem path ‘/media/clerck/5b7ea25c-624b-4048-9c50-d3e76c9dc2e6’) because search permissions are missing on a component of the path
