c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele directives are used by the server to determine how to construct
c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele self-referential URLs. For example, when a client requests a
c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele directory, but does not include the trailing slash in the
c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele directory name, Apache must redirect the client to the full
c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele name including the trailing slash so that the client will
c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele correctly resolve relative references in the document.</p>

c8e71fab0ea4bc3f8cb07693d6917f6b4644fbdcerikabele about locating files in paths which are writable by non-root users.
