Hi again,
To complete my previous post ('mod_version has to be loaded in Apache'):
Th directives in the .htaccess of all directories in the /bugzilla
directory tree do not conform to the new format for Apache 2.4. Please
refer to this page about 'Upgrading to 2.4 from 2.2' on the Apache
website (paragraph 'Run-Time Configuration Changes'):
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/upgrading.html
It boils down to replacing all:
<IfVersion < 2.4>
Deny from all
</IfVersion>
<IfVersion >= 2.4>
Deny from all
</IfVersion>
by
<IfVersion < 2.4>
Deny from all
</IfVersion>
<IfVersion >= 2.4>
Require all denied
</IfVersion>
and all
<IfVersion < 2.4>
Allow from all
</IfVersion>
<IfVersion >= 2.4>
Allow from all
</IfVersion>
by
<IfVersion < 2.4>
Allow from all
</IfVersion>
<IfVersion >= 2.4>
Require all granted
</IfVersion>
in all .htaccess files (11x).
Note: the elements <IfVersion < 2.4> are OK because they conform to the
Apache 2.2 syntax.
Best regards,
Rui Rosado

Hi everybody,
I would like to point out a lack (IMHO) in the Bugzilla instructions for
installling Apache on Windows (3.5.2. Apache on Windows#3.5.2.1.
Installing
<https://bugzilla.readthedocs.io/en/5.0/installing/apache-windows.html#apache-windows>)
This paragraph lacks the instruction to uncomment the line 'LoadModule
version_module modules/mod_version.so' in ./conf/httpd.conf (Apache)
If I *do not* uncomment that line our Bugzilla's main page will show up
without any 'decoration': just plain text links and edit-boxes.
The reason is that all the .htaccess files under \bugzilla directory and
its subdirectories contain: <IfModule mod_version.c>, so they are
referring to mod_version.so
If mod_version.so is not made available, all the lines in the .htaccess
files with 'Deny from all' or 'Allow from all' will cause erros to be
logged in Apache's error.log file.
After making mod_version.so available to Apache everything works great
for us.
I am not an Apache or Bugzilla expert, and therefore I do not know if
this is the only (right) solution. But if it is mentioned in the
installation instruction, it could prevent people pulling out their hairs.
Regards,
Rui Rosado
