Hi,
I hope someone could assist me.
My problem is: I want to achieve playing a mp4 file in webpage hosted by my apache2 server. Now I tried everything but he keeps giving me nothing.
First my php pages are located in default: /var/www
In each php page I build a litle piece of my complete path that I need to acces the mp4 file in my HTML 5 video tag.
Second my Video's are located in /media/disk1/Video
I also noticed on some blogs that u had to alter the apache2/sites-enabled/000-default file
The thing I added is written in red.
So i did like this
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
DocumentRoot /var/www
<Directory /var/www/>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
allow from all
</Directory>
<Directory /media/disk1/Video>
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
# alert, emerg.
LogLevel warn
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
------------------------------------------------------------------
and restarted my apache2
3de I Printed the complete path on the final php page to make sure I had formed the correct path, and this is the case.
I also made sure my mp4 files or path only contained alfabethic characters.
As last resort I tried to understand why my vids weren't played.
I went to my browser I tried to give the path in like this
http://192.168.0.136/media/disk1/Video/Series/Suits/SuitsS03E04.mp4
The result:
I got the error 404 not found...
I would be very glad if someone could share their insight on this problem.
I hope someone could assist me.
