134198 - addition for step_by_step installation file

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Bugzilla :: Documentation, defect, P1)

Chapter 3.2.12 HTTP Server

I suggest updating:

---

With apache you'll also want to make sure that within the
	access.conf file the line:
 Options ExecCGI
is in the stanza that covers the directories into which
	you intend to put the bugzilla .html and .cgi files.

 AllowOverride Limit

AllowOverride Limit allows the use of a Deny statement in the .htaccess file 
generated by checksetup.pl

Hope this helps,

Barnboy changed his email address and opened a new account instead of having the
address changed on his existing one.  Reassigning all docs bugs to his new account.

Attachment: Patch to make suggested wording change.

I don't know if this change is actually a good idea, but I'm assuming it is,
since myk asked me to make patches. :)

Greg, can you also add this line to the file?

Sure.  I left that out last time because there wasn't an explanation of the
"Options ExecCGI".  On my first read through, I missed the bit about the
.htaccess file being generated by checksetup.pl.  I'll add that first thing in
the morning.
