Issue with apache following symlinks

[Crazytje]

I've just reinstalled Apache with php on my centos server and for some reason it's not following symlinks.

 

The error that's in the error log is:

Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /var/www/html/test

 

I just do what I've always done in the past, my httpd.conf settings:

 

 

User apache

Group apache

 

DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"

 

<Directory />

    Options FollowSymLinks

    AllowOverride All

</Directory>

 

<Directory "/var/www/html">

    Options FollowSymLinks Indexes

 

    AllowOverride All

 

    Order allow,deny

    Allow from all

</Directory>

 

 

The symlink in /var/www/html

lrwxrwxrwx 1 apache apache  28 Dec 27 10:40 test -> /usr/local/site/test/

 

for testing i did a chmod 0777 on the directory, and everything is owned by apache.

 

What am I missing here?, It always worked in the past.

 

 

I hope someone can help, using google turned up nothing

Forgot to mention it is only for symlinks that point to directory's outside of the document root.

 

Couldn't edit my original post anymore

 

Thanks
