In fact, ikiwiki excludes any file starting with a dot, as well as a lot of other files, for good security reasons.</p> <p>You can tell ikiwiki not to exclude the .htaccess file by adding this to your setup file:</p> <pre><code>include => '^\.htaccess$', </code></pre> <p>Caution! Before you do that, please think for a minute about who can edit your wiki. Are attachment uploads enabled? Can users commit changes directly to the version control system? Do you trust everyone who can make a change to not do Bad Things with the htaccess file? Do you trust everyone who <em>might</em> be able to make a change in the future? Note that a determined attacker who can write to the htaccess file can probably get a shell on your web server.</p> <p>If any of these questions have given you pause, I suggest you find a different way to configure the web server. One way is to not put the <code>.htaccess</code> file under ikiwiki's control, and just manually install it in the destdir. --<span class="createlink">Joey</span></p> <p><a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/htaccess.html">Apache's documentation</a> says:</p> <blockquote> <p>In general, you should never use .htaccess files unless you don't have access to the main server configuration file.</p> </blockquote> </div> </div> <div id="footer" class="pagefooter" role="contentinfo"> <div id="pageinfo"> <div class="pagedate"> Last edited <span class="date">Tue Feb 26 23:01:54 2019</span> <!-- Created <span class="date">Sun Mar 14 18:58:13 2010</span> --> </div> </div> <!-- from ikiwiki --> </div> </div> </body> </html>
