Post subject: .htaccess: why???
Archived from groups: alt>apache>configuration (more info?)

Hi. Sorry for my english, but I don't know it very well.

I have a problem with .htaccess.
My file .htaccess is this:

====BEGIN========
AddType text/plain .log
=====END=========

I made it because my apache web server (provider aruba) associate to .log
files the MIME type "application/octet-stream" (I've known it with a print
of the filetype) that is also the MIME type for .exe files. I want to force
this association and give to .log files the MIME type "text/plain". Infact,
I have a form mail (in php) where it's possible to attach only .log and .txt
files (and ABSOLUTELY NOT .exe files!).

I've tried also this:

====BEGIN========
<Files ~ "\.(log)$">
ForceType text/plain
</Files>
=====END=========

They both don't works, the MIME type of .log files remains the same
("application/octet-stream").
I'm gonna wrong, or it's only a web server problem?

Thanx

Just a guess, but is AllowOverride set to allow .htaccess files in the
httpd.conf file for that directory?

<Directory /system/path/to/doc_root>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

(Or something like that)

I don't know, can I enter in this file? In my home directory, there isn't
it.
However, I used .htaccess (with .htpasswd) in my Downloads directory to
protect it, and it works perfectly.

No, it's a apache configuration file.
you have to ask to your site administrator

-----

No, e' un file di configurazione di apache
devi chiedere al tuo amministratore!

But in the aruba's guide there is a page in wich they explain how to use
AddType (http://vademecum.aruba.it/start/linux/mime.htm)
Then, I suppose that there is the right configuration to make it works!!!

Is my code right?

----

Ma nella giuda di aruba c'è una pagina nella quale spiegano come usare
AddType
Quindi, penso che la configurazione sia quella adatta a farlo funzionare!!!

Il mio codice è giusto? (Insomma, non è che ho sbagliato io qualcosa?)

Unfortunately, the use of AuthUserFile and ForceType can be enabled
seperately.

Yes, I'm sure. Log files remain "application/octet-stream".
I think that I have to ask my provider, because I don't wrong anything!!!
