This is not a Galaxy problem per se, but a problem during Galaxy setup so maybe others will have an insight.
So we're installing our own Galaxy for production / general use. I've been following the config and advanced config guides and installed Galaxy in its own account and home directory. It runs off the built-in web-server fine - the problem comes when I try to put it through an Apache proxy. Galaxy has to run off a subdirectory (http://foobar/galaxy) and if I just rewrite everything through there (RewriteRule ^/galaxy(.*) http://localhost:7070$1 [P]), it works fine.
The problem comes when I introduce the rewrite rules to have Apache serve the static content directly. None of the static content shows up and the error log shows "(13) permission denied" errors. Things I have tried:
Logged the rewrite calls to see they rewrite to the correctpaths for the static content
Checked the proxy-filter and filter-with declarationsChecked the unix permissions on the static dirTested for non-existent or incorrect paths (which generate adifferent error)
Inserted directory declarations to "Allow from all" for thestatic dir
Checked for and tried .htaccess filesSELinux is disabled
Hi Paul,
This is the whole list of things I would've suggested checking, especially looking for any high level (i.e. "/") <Directory> "Deny from all" declarations and .htaccess files anywhere in the tree. Beyond this, have you increased the error log level as high as possible to see if it yields any more information about what's going on?
The webserver user will also need read/execute permissions on every directory above/below the static directory, so you may want to double check this if you haven't.

I feel I must have a blindspot about the solution - any ideas about where else to look? Technical details: cloned the latest Galaxy distribution, running on Fedora 9, Apache 2.2.
