quick apache 2 question

eckertc1 · 03-08-2005, 02:06 AM

After setting up my apache server and ftp server i can upload everything fine but when I visit my site i can only access the index.html.

example:

www.mysite.com takes me to the main page
www.mysite.com/nextpage should take me to next page but it doesnt.

anyone know why this would act in such a way.

btw. im running apache 2 on Fedora Core 3 if that makes any difference.

thanks in advance for any help.

hi, what is ´nextpage´...a dir or a htm-file?
..does it match the directoryindex-parameter?

the nextpage is just another html file in the same directory as the index.html.

if by directoryindex-parameter you mean is it an allowed file type then yes, it is the same file type as the index. (html)

what does your error_log tell of the incident? The correct path is mentioned in your httpd.conf

Well the error log is clean and all seems to be working perfect now. very strange, wish i could say what was causing it but i just dont know.

and ur access_log?
..means on ur index.htm is a link to nextpage.htm, but the link doesn´t work?!

When you specify the nextpage, are you including the extension

ie

www.mysite.com/nextpage.html

Apache does not implicitly add the ext.

yes i am including the extention, the link works some times. like an hour ago everything was perfect and now its not working again

this is driving me crazy cause the log files look ok
