[Resolved] 403 error - symlink - phpmyadmin

[whey]

Trying to connect to phpmyadmin via symlink to mydomain.com/phpmyadmin however i encounter a 403 error. I have looked around and done some research and to no avail so I thought I would post a thread.

the link links to phpmyadmin ( /usr/share/phpmyadmin )

Cheers,

so you did
ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin mydomain.com/phpmyadmin
and encountered
"HTTP Error 403 Forbidden"

may need define a alias to avoid the error.
like

alias /phpmyadmin /usr/share/phpmyadmin

in your httpd.conf

where is the httpd.conf for litespeed located? Tried to look for it but could not find it other than a couple templates in the lsws conf folder.

sorry, I assumed you're in cPanel env and litespeed read apache's httpd.conf.

the equivalent of alias in litespeed's native configuration is "context" in vhost level.

add a static context:
URI:/phpmyadmin/
Location:/usr/share/phpmyadmin/

refer document:
http://www.litespeedtech.com/docs/webserver/config/context/

ah so simple connection is fine after inserting the codex.

Sorry for not saying I was just using litespeed without cpanel. However we do have cpanel servers as well which we might transfer over in the near future, just testing it out on a single domain for now Thanks for the help!
