apache2 debian上的redmine子网址

Question

I had instaled Redmine under Debian8 and Apache/2.4.10 (Debian), it works great. The default instalation causes, it is only app served by Apache... After mamy googling links and hints, I try change it with Apache configuration in way described here:

basic Redmine file ( /etc/apache2/sites-available/redmine.conf ) is:

# The passenger module (from the libapache2-mod-passenger package) must be
# enabled
<VirtualHost *:80>
    # ServerName my.domain.name
    # this is the passenger config eee
    RailsEnv production
    SetEnv X_DEBIAN_SITEID "default"
    # CHANGE PassengerAppGroupName FOR OTHER INSTANCES
    PassengerAppGroupName redmine_default
    PassengerDefaultUser www-data
    Alias "/plugin_assets/" /var/cache/redmine/default/plugin_assets/
    DocumentRoot /usr/share/redmine/public
    <Directory "/usr/share/redmine/public">
        Allow from all
        Options -MultiViews
        Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

so, I try to move this settings a little bit upper - from sites-available to conf-available (similar like phpMyAdmin), and created /etc/apache2/conf-available/redmine.conf :

Alias /redmine /usr/share/redmine/public/

PassengerDefaultUser www-data
DocumentRoot /usr/share/redmine/public

<Location /redmine>
    RailsEnv production
    SetEnv X_DEBIAN_SITEID "default"
    # CHANGE PassengerAppGroupName FOR OTHER INSTANCES
    PassengerAppGroupName redmine_default

</Location>
Alias "/redmine/plugin_assets/" /var/cache/redmine/default/plugin_assets/

<Directory "/usr/share/redmine/public/">
        Allow from all
        Options -MultiViews
        Require all granted
</Directory>

and I added:

RedmineApp::Application.routes.default_scope = "/redmine"

to file: /usr/share/redmine/config/environment.rb (according to hint in: http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/HowTo_Install_Redmine_in_a_sub-URI )

...and :-( now Redmine works with 'localhost/redmine' but eg. phpMyAdmin doesnt work and behave like bad redmine-link

When I remove DocumentRoot /usr/share/redmine/public line from redmine.conf - all works except redmine... link localhost/redmine show:

Forbidden You don't have permission to access /redmine/ on this server.

and Apache error.log :

[Sun Nov 12 14:14:52.162868 2017] [autoindex:error] [pid 12220] [client ::1:45382] AH01276: Cannot serve directory /usr/share/redmine/public/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.html,index.cgi,index.pl,index.php,index.xhtml ...

My question is: is there a way to use DocumentRoot depending on match Alias? Or maybe is another way to fix it...

EDIT:

when redmine.conf is changed to:

[...]
#DocumentRoot /usr/share/redmine/public
[...]
<Directory "/usr/share/redmine/public/">

        PassengerEnabled on
        SetHandler none
        PassengerAppRoot /usr/share/redmine
        RailsBaseURI /redmine/redmine

        Allow from all
        Options -MultiViews
        Require all granted
</Directory>

And, at the end of file environment.rb , I have added:

Redmine::Utils::relative_url_root = "/redmine"

Now it works (Redmine and phpMyAdmin and other php) perfect!

Since you are already using Passenger, the proper value to pass if your app is in sub-folder is:

PassengerBaseURI /redmine 

From their website, just replace subapp with redmine...

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName www.phusion.nl
    DocumentRoot /websites/phusion/public
    <Directory /websites/phusion>
        Allow from all
        Options -MultiViews
        # Uncomment this if you're on Apache >= 2.4:
        #Require all granted
    </Directory>

    # These have been added:
    Alias /subapp /websites/secondapp/public
    <Location /subapp>
        PassengerBaseURI /subapp
        PassengerAppRoot /websites/secondapp

    </Location>
    <Directory /websites/secondapp/public>
        Allow from all
        Options -MultiViews
        # Uncomment this if you're on Apache >= 2.4:
        #Require all granted
    </Directory>
</VirtualHost>
