Re: Apache configuration problem -- WEB400

We have a winner!! The authority on JDEANE had *PUBLIC *CHANGE. On TEST15, it was *PUBLIC *EXCLUDE. I changed the authorization list for library TEST15 to add QTMHHTTP with *USE authority and it worked!! Thanks so much.

What do the permission on JDEANE look like? We don't use CGI for
anything anymore, so it's been many beers ago since I had to play with
any of this. My recollection is that ServerUserID behaves differently
depending on where it is in the config file. It may still be checking
permissions as QTMHHTTP or QTMHHTP1.

Kevin,

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked the authority on TEST15 and it

is

secured by an authorization list that contains user WEBSVC with *ALL
authority. When I look at the Apache error_log file, I see the

message "[Fri

Dec 08 14:23:15 2017] [error] [client 10.1.10.250] (3401)Permission

denied.:

ZSRV_MSG064B: access to /read/GetCharitableGiving denied". When I

look

at the server jobs for the Apache server, I don't see any error

messages.

From what I can tell, it doesn't look like it gets to the point for

trying to call my

RPG program. I tried using a different user for the ServerUserID, but

I still

received the same error.

From reading the Apache documentation, it looks like the Location

directives

are processed after the Directory directives. With that being the

case, I

would have thought that my last Location directive <Location
/read/GetCharitableGiving>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow From All
</Location>

Would have given me authority to access it. Any other ideas?

Subject: [WEB400] Apache configuration problem

I'm trying to call a web service configured in Apache and I keep

receiving a

403 error. I have changed the Apache configuration multiple times
and

I can't

figure out what is causing the problem. Here is some of the config

file:

<Directory />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From all
</Directory>
<Directory /www/apachews/htdocs>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From all
</Directory>

<Directory /qsys.lib/test15.lib/>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From all
</Directory>

ScriptAlias /restsrv1 /qsys.lib/jdeane.lib/restsrv1.pgm

ScriptAlias /restsrv2 /qsys.lib/jdeane.lib/restsrv2.pgm

ScriptAlias /read/GetHealthInsurance
/qsys.lib/jdeane.lib/restsrv4.pgm

ScriptAlias /read/GetClientsForName

/qsys.lib/jdeane.lib/restsrv3.pgm

ScriptAlias /read/GetData /qsys.lib/jdeane.lib/$getwebsvc.pgm

ScriptAlias /read/GetCharitableGiving

/qsys.lib/test15.lib/gww044.pgm

<Location /restsrv2>
SetEnv QIBM_CGI_CHANGE_CURLIB N
ServerUserID JDEANE
SetEnv QIBM_CGI_LIBRARY_LIST

"QGPL;JDEANE;MGPL;LIBHTTP;CGIDEV2"

</Location>
<Location /read>
ServerUserID WEBSVC
SetEnv QIBM_CGI_CHANGE_CURLIB N
SetEnv QIBM_CGI_LIBRARY_LIST
"QGPL;ISDEPT;MGPL;TAATOOL;OBJECT;YAJL"
</Location>
<Location /read/GetData>
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From 10.2.0.31 10.2.0.109 10.1.10.250 </Location>

<Location

/read/GetCharitableGiving>
Order Deny,Allow
Allow From All
</Location>

I'm using SOAPUI to do my testing and the URL I'm using is
http://as400.mma-
online.org:8500/read/GetCharitableGiving?ownerclientid=1234567.

What

is

strange is that I'm able to call the http://as400.mma-
online.org:8500/read/GetData?firstname=Marilyn&lastname=Yoder just
fine. Why does GetData work and GetCharitableGiving doesn't? Any

ideas

why my config file isn't working? This is Apache 2.2 on IBM I 7.1.
