simple configuration on SuSE apache: help

hey guys..

My apache is working well on SuSE, but if I have no index.htm on a directory, for example, and I try to access localhost/dir it does not show the files that are in that directory. But if I put a index.htm file on dir it displays the page well.

The aim is to make an apache like we see in mirrors, that it only shows the files on a directory, but my apache is configured somewhere "if there's no index.htm, show an error to the user :P"

How could I change that configuration to one that if the user tries to access that directory which does not have an index.htm, his/her browser just show the files on the directory?

thanks in advance...

In your apache config file, you need to make sure the directory has "Indexes" on the "Options" line. Something like this

Code:

DocumentRoot "/home/username/test/example.com/htdocs/"

<Directory "/home/username/test/example.com/htdocs/">

  Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews

  AllowOverride None



  Order allow,deny

  Allow from all

</Directory>

thanks. i will test it soon!
