mod_userdir Tweak is not working ?

[heavypredator]

users can still use http://host.name.com/~user/

mod_userdir Tweak is enabled

to fix this enable userdir tweak and edit your httpd.conf
vi /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf

find this:

<VirtualHost **.**.**.**>
BytesLog domlogs/host.name.com-bytes_log
ServerName host.name.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs
</VirtualHost>

and change to this:

<VirtualHost **.**.**.**>
BytesLog domlogs/host.name.com-bytes_log
ServerName host.name.com
<IfModule mod_userdir.c>
Userdir disabled
Userdir enabled ********
Userdir enabled ********
Userdir enabled ********
</IfModule>
DocumentRoot /usr/local/apache/htdocs
</VirtualHost>


instead of ********* put user wich you want to enable usage of http://host.name.com/~user/

Take out the global mod_userdir statement that's a bit higher up in your httpd.conf. That will fix your problem.

Hehe.... strange way you have to solve things

why dont select the GLOBAL select box...
and then click to ALLOW it on your SHARED SSL domain ?

this will work.
I have userdir disabled on all domains, except one or two I use to show sites (using /~username ) that are not yet resolving to the IP. (in the meanwhile, people can see their websites using user_dir) So for you use with shared SSL is THE SAME

the problem is when you have user using your hostname not domains

domains are blocked but hostname not - then bandwitch usage goes to your hostname

Okay, running Cpanel Release 10.6.0-R147.

I'd like to get user directories working because it usually takes DNS 2-3 days to update before a client can visit their site.

I've run /scripts/rebuildhttpdconf

*Calling this in the URL:
http://www.networksynergies.biz/~bsa1
--or--
http://www.networksynergies.biz/~bsa1/

*Gives me this in the log file (/etc/httpd/logs/error_log):
[Fri Sep 2 15:57:19 2005] [error] [client 70.116.4.157] File does not exist: /home/netsyn/public_html/~bsa1
--or--
[Fri Sep 2 15:49:44 2005] [error] [client 70.116.4.157] File does not exist: /home/netsyn/public_html/~bsa1/

*And this in the web-browser:
Not Found
The requested URL /~bsa1/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.33 Server at www.networksynergies.biz Port 80

Thanks for the help,
