<Directory> directive
Description: | Group directives that will be applied to specific file-system directory and sub-directories |
Syntax: | <Directory directory-path> ... </Directory> |
Context: | server config, virtual host |
<Directory> ... </Directory> tag is used to group directives that will apply to specific file-system directory and sub-directories. Wildcard characters ? and * are allowed. Regular expressions can also be used with the addition of the ~ character.
Be careful with the directory-path arguments: They have to literally match the filesystem path which is used to access files. Directives applied to a particular <Directory> will not apply to files accessed from that same directory via a different path, such as via different symbolic links. Only fully qualified file paths are allowed.
Example:
<Directory C:/inetpub/> |
Don't forget to include RewriteEngine on directive in every <VirtualHost> tag or enclosed rules will not be applied.
