.htaccess in subdirectory of default apache2 directory












0















I have apache2 installed and running on my computer, and I have a folder in



/var/www/html/my-site 


That I want to enable



Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"


So far I put a .htaccess file in the my-site folder, with



<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Credentials true
</IfModule>


But I'm a little unsure where to enable .htaccess for the directory. I made sure the apache2 header module is loaded, and I put a new directory listing in my apache2.conf file as such (unsure if that will work?), which still does not make it work:



<Directory /var/www/html/my-site>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>


I don't want to mess around with adding a new site and possibly doing reverse proxy, so I just wanted to be able to make this site work. Is it possible, and am I doing something wrong here?



Finally, I'm trying to use the javascript lib axios and run a request cross domain, but I get the error which is the reason why I'm doing this:



Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://sitethatisdesired.com. (Reason: CORS header ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ missing)

  • I'm not sure if the "IfModule" works in htaccess. Put the Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" in your vhost.

  • Excuse my ignorance, but where in which file would that be exactly?

  • The same file in which you put the Directory. And Restart/reload after changes

  • That's the main apache2.conf file though, and I would prefer not to enable access control for * from everywhere, rather just for that specific sub directory. I tried to remove "IfModule" from the .htaccess and just leave the Header lines, but still that didn't work. Would there be a simple way to check if .htaccess is read properly?

  • You can add custom vhost files. Normally in /etc/apache2/sites-available/ and after that a2ensite enable myvhost.con and restart
