when I go to http://localhost-aem-dispatcher, Internal Server Error happens

[chung_yonge1684]

Hello Everyone,

Now, I have configured dispatcher in aem in order to work cache in dispatcher.

But when I go to http://localhost-aem-dispatcher, Internal Server Error happens and the folder(C:\Apache2\htdocs\localhost-aem-dispatcher) for caching is empty like that.

Can you help me fix the error? I have no idea why.

1.C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

127.0.0.1 localhost-aem-dispatcher

2.C:\Apache2\conf\dispatcher.any

# name of the dispatcher

/name "internet-server"

# Each farm configures a set of load balanced renders (i.e. remote servers)

/farms {

  # first farm entry (label is not important, just for your convenience)

  /website {       

    /virtualhosts {

"localhost-aem-dispatcher"

    }

    /renders {

      /0001 {

        /hostname "127.0.0.1"

        /port "4503"

      }

    }

    /cache {

}

I fixed Internal Server Error.

I changed my VirtualHost setting like that.

C:\Apache2\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf

NameVirtualHost localhost-aem-dispatcher:80

<VirtualHost localhost-aem-dispatcher:80>

    ServerName localhost-aem-dispatcher

    ServerAlias localhost-aem-dispatcher

    CustomLog C:/Apache2/logs/localhost-aem-dispatcher-access_log common

    <Directory C:/Apache2/htdocs/localhost-aem-dispatcher/>

       <IfModule disp_apache2.c>

           SetHandler dispatcher-handler

           ModMimeUsePathInfo On

       </IfModule>

       Options FollowSymLinks

       AllowOverride None

       # Apache httpd 2.2

       Order allow,deny

       Allow from all

       # Apache httpd 2.4

       # Require all granted

   </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

But I have still the problem that caching in dispatcher doesn't work.

Can you help me work the caching in dispatccher?

[raj_mandalapu]

You must have that property then only the server will accept requests

Require all granted

Do you want any requirement to not accept requests from the particular IP address or domain name ? if  so then you can use below configurations

Require not ip 192.169.205.195

Require not host keysandstrokes.info

If want to disable requests from all users then you can use this

Require all denied

[chung_yonge1684]

I think Require all granted supports in Apache 2.4 version only.

I think Require all granted don't support in Apache 2.2 version.

My Apache version is 2.2.

[raj_mandalapu]

You need to use below one

Allow from all

[chung_yonge1684]

I already used below one..

Allow from all

but caching in dispatcher doesn't work.

what should I add in /cache in dispatcher.any ?

[chung_yonge1684]

I found the following informations below url.

"You cannot add the Require all granted line in Apache 2.2, or you’ll get a 500 Internal Server Error."

Updating Virtual Host Settings from Apache 2.2 to Apache 2.4
