Apache User_Dir problem

dickohead · 03-09-2005, 08:42 PM

Hey guys,

i have user dir enabled, but when i just type in:

address/~username it send me to microsoft.com if i am accessing it locally what the hell is with that!) or it adds another http:// to the start of my address, but if i type address/~username/index.htm the file comes up fine!

here are the addresses:

http://dickinson.homelinux.net/~tim
http://dickinson.homelinux.net/~tim/index.htm

so.... does anyone know what's causing this? if need be i shall post my httpd.conf file when i get home! I'm using SuSE 8.2 and apache 1.3 if that helps at all

My guess is that you're missing a piece of information in the httpd.conf file. Specifically, the the "DirectoryIndex" directive probably needs to have "index.htm" added to it.

I'm not sure where that file is stashed on your version os SuSE (on 9.2 it's under /etc/apache2).

Hope this helps...

that's exactly what i thought the problem was, but the directory index is set to (in this order):

index.php index.htm index.html

here's a link to my httpd.conf file:

httpd.conf
The above link also proves that yes public_html and userdir are enabled!
