Hi again,<br>
<br>
To complete my previous post ('mod_version has to be loaded in
Apache'):<br>
<br>
Th directives in the .htaccess of all directories in the /bugzilla
directory tree do not conform to the new format for Apache 2.4.
Please refer to this page about 'Upgrading to 2.4 from 2.2' on the
Apache website (paragraph 'Run-Time Configuration Changes'):<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html">https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html</a><br>
<br>
It boils down to replacing all:<br>
<br>
<IfVersion < 2.4><br>
Deny from all<br>
</IfVersion><br>
<IfVersion >= 2.4><br>
Deny from all<br>
</IfVersion><br>
by<br>
<IfVersion < 2.4><br>
Deny from all<br>
</IfVersion><br>
<IfVersion >= 2.4><br>
Require all denied<br>
</IfVersion><br>
<br>
and all<br>
<IfVersion < 2.4><br>
Allow from all<br>
</IfVersion><br>
<IfVersion >= 2.4><br>
Allow from all<br>
</IfVersion><br>
by<br>
<IfVersion < 2.4><br>
Allow from all<br>
</IfVersion><br>
<IfVersion >= 2.4><br>
Require all granted<br>
</IfVersion><br>
<br>
in all .htaccess files (11x).<br>
Note: the elements <IfVersion < 2.4> are OK because they
conform to the Apache 2.2 syntax.<br>

Hi everybody,<br>
<br>
I would like to point out a lack (IMHO) in the Bugzilla
instructions for installling Apache on Windows (<a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://bugzilla.readthedocs.io/en/5.0/installing/apache-windows.html#apache-windows">3.5.2.
Apache on Windows#3.5.2.1. Installing</a>)<br>
This paragraph lacks the instruction to uncomment the line
'LoadModule version_module modules/mod_version.so' in
./conf/httpd.conf (Apache)<br>
If I *do not* uncomment that line our Bugzilla's main page will
show up without any 'decoration': just plain text links and
edit-boxes.<br>
<br>
The reason is that all the .htaccess files under \bugzilla
directory and its subdirectories contain: <IfModule
mod_version.c>, so they are referring to mod_version.so<br>
If mod_version.so is not made available, all the lines in the
.htaccess files with 'Deny from all' or 'Allow from all' will
cause erros to be logged in Apache's error.log file.<br>
<br>
After making mod_version.so available to Apache everything works
great for us.<br>
<br>
I am not an Apache or Bugzilla expert, and therefore I do not know
if this is the only (right) solution. But if it is mentioned in
the installation instruction, it could prevent people pulling out
their hairs.<br>
