"<code>FileInfo</code>". Thus, you must have at least
"<code>AllowOverride FileInfo</code>" in order for this directive to be

<p>In general, you should never use <code>.htaccess</code> files unless
<p>However, in general, use of <code>.htaccess</code> files should be
avoided when possible. Any configuration that you would consider
putting in a <code>.htaccess</code> file, can just as effectively be
- made in a <a href="../mod/core.html#directory" class="directive"><code class="directive"><Directory></code></a> section in your main server
+ made in a <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#directory"><Directory></a></code> section in your main server
configuration file.</p>
<p>There are two main reasons to avoid the use of
<code>.htaccess</code> files.</p>

+ <p>The first of these is performance. When <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#allowoverride">AllowOverride</a></code>
is set to allow the use of <code>.htaccess</code> files, Apache will
look in every directory for <code>.htaccess</code> files. Thus,
permitting <code>.htaccess</code> files causes a performance hit,
directory <code>/www/htdocs/example</code>, Apache must look for the
following files:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
- /.htaccess<br>
- /www/.htaccess<br>
- /www/htdocs/.htaccess<br>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ /.htaccess<br />
+ /www/.htaccess<br />
+ /www/htdocs/.htaccess<br />
/www/htdocs/example/.htaccess
- </code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
+ </code></p></div>
<p>And so, for each file access out of that directory, there are 4
additional file-system accesses, even if none of those files are
<p><code>.htaccess</code> file in <code>/www/htdocs/example</code>:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><p align="center"><strong>Contents of .htaccess file in
- <code>/www/htdocs/example</code></strong></p><code>
+ <div class="example"><h3>Contents of .htaccess file in
+ <code>/www/htdocs/example</code></h3><p><code>
AddType text/example .exm

+ <Directory /www/htdocs/example><br />
+ AddType text/example .exm<br />

+ </code></p></div>
<p>However, putting this configuration in your server configuration
file will result in less of a performance hit, as the configuration is
<p>The use of <code>.htaccess</code> files can be disabled completely
by setting the <code>AllowOverride</code> directive to "none"</p>

<p>The configuration directives found in a <code>.htaccess</code> file
are applied to the directory in which the <code>.htaccess</code> file
<p>In the directory <code>/www/htdocs/example1</code> we have a
<code>.htaccess</code> file containing the following:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>

- </code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
+ </code></p></div>
<p>(Note: you must have "<code>AllowOverride Options</code>" in effect
- to permit the use of the "<a href="../mod/core.html#options" class="directive"><code class="directive">Options</code></a>" directive in
+ to permit the use of the "<code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#options">Options</a></code>" directive in

<p>In the directory <code>/www/htdocs/example1/example2</code> we have
a <code>.htaccess</code> file containing:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>

- </code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
+ </code></p></div>
<p>Because of this second <code>.htaccess</code> file, in the directory
<code>/www/htdocs/example1/example2</code>, CGI execution is not
permitted, as only <code>Options Includes</code> is in effect, which
completely overrides any earlier setting that may have been in
place.</p>

<p>Another common use of <code>.htaccess</code> files is to enable
Server Side Includes for a particular directory. This may be done with
the following configuration directives, placed in a
<code>.htaccess</code> file in the desired directory:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
- Options +Includes<br>
- AddType text/html shtml<br>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ Options +Includes<br />
+ AddType text/html shtml<br />

<p>Note that <code>AllowOverride Options</code> and <code>AllowOverride
FileInfo</code> must both be in effect for these directives to have any

+</div><div class="top"><a href="#page-header"><img alt="top" src="../images/up.gif" /></a></div><div class="section"><h2><a name="cgi" id="cgi">CGI example</a></h2>
<p>Finally, you may wish to use a <code>.htaccess</code> file to permit
the execution of CGI programs in a particular directory. This may be
implemented with the following configuration:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
- Options +ExecCGI<br>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ Options +ExecCGI<br />
AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
- </code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
+ </code></p></div>
<p>Alternately, if you wish to have all files in the given directory be
considered to be CGI programs, this may be done with the following
configuration:</p>
- <blockquote><table cellpadding="10"><tr><td bgcolor="#eeeeee"><code>
- Options +ExecCGI<br>
+ <div class="example"><p><code>
+ Options +ExecCGI<br />
SetHandler cgi-script
- </code></td></tr></table></blockquote>
+ </code></p></div>
<p>Note that <code>AllowOverride Options</code> must be in effect for
these directives to have any effect.</p>
<p>Please see the <a href="cgi.html">CGI tutorial</a> for a more
complete discussion of CGI programming and configuration.</p>

<p>When you put configuration directives in a <code>.htaccess</code>
file, and you don't get the desired effect, there are a number of
things that may be going wrong.</p>

for the file scope in question. A good test for this is to put garbage

will then need to fix.</p>
