Summary

0001687: Captive portal guest authentication not generating apache configs

Description

Enabling guest authentication on pf 4.0.4 and 4.0.5-2 i notice all works good, expect the actual conformation page.
Always the 403 forbidden error is shown for /activate/email/code adresses
also /signup doesnt work even though explicitly enabling it in the configurator.

Reasons why it doesnt work seems to be related to the apache.pm module.
Parsed config shows:
# Allowed from everywhere
# allowed_from_all_URLs is generated by lib/pf/services/apache.pm (and comes
# with a | first but not after). It is built depending on the features activated.
# /signup and /preregister open only if pre-registration
# /activate/email on sponsor and email guest modes
<Location ~ "/content/">
Allow from all
</Location>

Hence explaining not allowing the /signup etc urls to work.
Profiles from the webfrontend cannot enable or disable guest_modes either. It seems tough some errors are still present. Bug 1679 is confirmed solved but seems that bug also implied the 403 apache error
