    I'm trying to set up an alias with my Document Root using apache 2.0.54 win32

    I've got

    DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs"
    Alias /stats "C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory/etpro/html"

    which seems to work but the problem is its denying me access as it needs a <directory> allowances set up which is where I'm stuck as the example they give is using a nix path which ahs no spaces but with my setup

    <Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    </Directory>

    <Directory "C:/Program Files/Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory/etpro/html">
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    </Directory>

    doesn't work and I'm guessing because of the spaces all it does is deny me everytime, any ideas?

    Add %20 instead of spaces? Though windows isnt white space sensitive (bar dos) so should be ok...?

    tried that already but still

    Forbidden

    You don't have permission to access /stats/ on this server.

    didn't seem to work either :/

    the example they give is

    Alias /image /ftp/pub/image
    <Directory /ftp/pub/image>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    </Directory>
