Vulnz Docker image - Cron job not running and Apache conf not picked up

[PaulCormier]

First of all, thank you @EugenMayer and @jeremylong for putting this together. I was trying to do this in my spare time, but I didn't get this far.

Unfortunately, the cron job isn't running for me when the crontab file is owned by mirror. If I change it to root:root it does run.

Also, the Apache config for the mirror location isn't being picked up automatically. I had to append "Include conf/mirror.conf" to the main httpd.conf. Specifically, I was trying to configure the fancy directory listing from within the mirror.conf file, and it wasn't being picked up.

If it's not just me, I hope I've helped pinpoint the issue.

Did you build your image yourself or did you use https://github.com/jeremylong/Open-Vulnerability-Project/pkgs/container/open-vulnerability-data-mirror ? if the latter, did you use 6.0.0?

• cron seems not to be running for me too, since my files have been updated on the 28. Feb. so there is something to it
• apache - this one is working for sure, since this would take it down for me in production

I built the image myself; I needed to add a CA cert.

For Apache, it was serving the files but changes to the mirror.conf weren't being picked up.

This is not a topic for this Docker image and nothing to support or not support. Those are docker basics or docker topics

I could reproduce this and fix it with the incoming PR #148

But, does it work on your end? I changed the IndexOptions to: IndexOptions FancyIndexing SuppressDescription, but it was only showing the plain file list until I explicitly included mirror.conf in the httpd.conf.

Now I get:

Sorry @PaulCormier, this is beyond this project and has nothing to do with this docker image in particular.

IMHO this issue should be resolved or at least resolved and the question with the mirror.conf should be moved into a disucssion.

I will try and publish the updated version soon.
