===== Serving directories outside www_root =====

Problem: want to serve a wiki inside home directory: 
    wiki -> /home/dang/data/mydirectory/www_local/tdwiki/www/dokuwiki-2012-09-10

==== Symlink from www_root ====
  - create symlink to the directory in "home".
  - set Directory access option for this symlink in httpd.conf    
    
1. Create symlink inside www_root
    cd /var/www/html
    ln -s /home/dang/data/mydirectory/www_local/tdwiki/www/dokuwiki-2012-09-10 wiki
    
2. Allow apache access permission 
    chown -R apache:apache /home/dang/data/mydirectory/www_local

3. Set x-permission for all dirs on the path.
    chmod +x /home/dang
    chmod +x /home/dang/data
    chmod +x /home/dang/data/mydirectory    
    chmod +x /home/dang/data/mydirectory/www_local
   
=== /etc/httpd/conf.d/www_local.conf ===

<code>
<Directory "/var/www/html/wiki">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Require all granted
</Directory>
</code>

==== Alias to a directory outside www_root ====

** Set execute x-permission as about, to all path **

=== /etc/httpd/conf.d/www_local.conf ===

<code>
<IfModule alias_module>
Alias /lweb /home/dang/data/mydirectory/www_local
</IfModule>

<Directory "/home/dang/data/mydirectory/www_local">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Require all granted
</Directory>


<Directory "/var/www/html/wiki">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Require all granted
</Directory>
</code>
