Webserver passwords, as well as web ‘symlinks’ WERE broken due to ONE bad .htaccess file!

Well, I unexpectedly caused the web server’s password protected directories ALL to go down the drain with just ONE mistake in ONE .htaccess file.  Not only that, but many symbolic links stopped working in apache, even though they still worked in a CLI.  I am such a dumbass, heh.  Here’s what I did:

This is an example of the .htaccess file I created:

# cat .htaccess

AuthUserFile /XXXXX/XXXXX/XXXXX/.xxxxx AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthName “Sam’s Blog”
AuthType Basic

<Limit GET POST PUT>
  require user xxxxx yyyyy
</Limit>

The offending line is in Bold Blue, more specifically that one little old apostrophe.  😉

All fixed now, boys and girls. 😀

New Bootlegs on CRAB

crab_radio_01Had the day off today, and what better thing to do on a day off except add more music to the server….  😉

I still have lots more to send, but I really need to ‘chip away’ at the stone.

Here’s what I added today:

ACDC – 1979-09-01 – Zeppelinfeld, Nurnberg, Germany
Deep Purple – 1988 – Autobahn
Deep Purple – 1994 – Live at St. Gallen Festival
Grand Funk Railroad – 1970-07-29 – Hampton Beach
Grand Funk Railroad – 1971 – Hawaii July 12, 1971
Grand Funk Railroad – 1971-12-04 – Dusseldorf
Grand Funk Railroad – 1974-06-02 – LA Forum
Lynyrd Skynyrd – 1977-07-13 – Asbury Park, NJ

Michael Schenker Group – 1982 – Assault Attack Demos
Michael Schenker Group – 1983 – Wurtzburg

Whitesnake – 1982 – Saints and Sinners Tour Rehearsals

Probably the most notable of the new additions is the July 1977 Recording of Lynyrd Skynyrd at Asbury Park.  This is probably the last recording before the horrific plane crash.

Enjoy!!  And, have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!!

‘NEW’ page now working on CRAB

 

Got the NEW page working on the CRAB server……  It was more than likely a side effect of the Apache server upgrade somewhere around the Fedora 18 or 19 upgrade.  Here’s how I did it:

I became root user, then opened a terminal in the requests directory.

# nano .htaccess

Then, I put the following into the file:

Options +Includes
AddType text/html .html .shtml .txt
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .html .shtml .txt

Saved the file, then restarted Apache as follows:

# systemctl restart httpd

That took care of it, but I think I shall try putting that .htaccess file in CRAB’s document root, as well as the main server document root.  I think that might be a better place for that file.  😀

Bootlegs on CRAB

crab_radio_01

Well, I have been busy the last week or two, segregating existing bootlegs on the station, as well as uploading about 10 GB of new ones, totaling about 45GB so far.  I also have many more to add.  For some reason the ‘NEW’ page doesn’t seem to be working, and I’ll try to resolve that one as soon as possible.  For now, you can just do a search on ‘Bootlegs’, and they will all come up.  Recently, I have added AC/DC, Scorpions, UFO, Jack Bruce, Heart, Deep Purple, and Rainbow as well as some others, with many more on my laptop that need to be tagged and renamed before sending them.  Keep an eye on the Bootlegs, as there is a lot of great music in there!  😉

Tech, music, and general ramblings…..
