Problem with redaxo install

[urs]

Hi

I'm trying to install redaxo cms on my litespeed server. In the install routine of redaxo is a test that a directory is not reachable.
I enabled the .htaccess but i still get an empty page if i try to reach a page in the folder and not an error page.
htaccess=
order deny,allow
deny from all

I still can open files in that folder....

any ideas how i can install redaxo?

regards

make sure htaccess is honored.

admin cp => server => general => htaccess:
Allow Override => at least FileInfo check
Access File Name => .htaccess

also enable DEBUG log level (admin cp => Server => Log => Server Log)
Log Level => DEBUG
Debug Level = Low

check error log and see if htaccess is read (HTAccess in log entry).

Now i restarted the server (pc) and now it works.

Why is a restart of the server needed??

remove the rules without restart, see if it is effective right away.
