Symlink gives 500 error
I am a bit lost here.
I've created a symlink to avoid having to have duplicate content for two very similar sites.
The symlink is owned by the user. However whenever I try to access the addon2.com/assets link it shows a 500 error saying: AH00027: No authentication done but request not allowed without authentication for /assets Would anyone know what is meant by "authentication" here? What kind of authentication is needed and why do I need authentication to access this directory?
ln -s /home/user/public_html/addon1.com/assets/ /home/user/public_html/addon2.com/assetsThe symlink is owned by the user. However whenever I try to access the addon2.com/assets link it shows a 500 error saying: AH00027: No authentication done but request not allowed without authentication for /assets Would anyone know what is meant by "authentication" here?

Hello, Could you verify if any of the .htaccess files under the document roots for those addon domain names, or within the public_html directory, include an entry for "Require valid-user"? Thanks! 0
