How to block browsing of filestore folder?

[DJ Molicious]

I'm getting this message at the installation check:

Blocked browsing of 'filestore' directory  | FAIL: filestore folder appears to be browseable; remove 'Indexes' from Apache 'Options' list.

How do i fix this?

Thanks!

Are you using Apache for your server?

Find your httpd.conf file -- it may vary with your installation.

Search for the word "directory". If you dont have an entry for your
install, you may need to make one. In the options, make sure you don't
have Indexes listed, as below. You'll need to save the change, then
***restart Apache*** to get it working.

<Directory "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/ResourceSpace/
filestore">
#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
# Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI
MultiViews
#
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options
All"
# doesn't give it to you.
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please
see
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options
# for more information.
#
Options FollowSymLinks ExecCGI Includes

#
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
#
Order allow,deny
Allow from all

</Directory>

Hey DJ-M,

Had the same issue (running debian linux), the fix was to be applied
in
/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default:
See the - (minus) before the word Indexes.

<Directory /var/www/>
Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews -Indexes
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>

Note: All the other configs may be different for you. Don't change
them to what is shown here - leave them alone.

Hope it helps you and maybe some others down the line.
Cheers,
Rudy
