Can't access new entry into my index.html file

pizzipie · 10-29-2015, 01:19 PM

I don't know whether this question goes in the server forum or not so I put it in here.

In one of Ubuntu's 14.04 update sessions it apparently updated Apache2.2 (or whatever) into Apache/2.4.7/ I have a virtual host mydb.com which has been working fine for more than a year. Now, if I try to add another item (<input type="button" class="hov" id="btn2h" value="My-Google-Mapping" onclick="window.location.href='my-mapping'"></input><br /></li>) to the index.html file /my-mapping/ I get the below error. I have absolutely no idea what it means or how to fix it. If I don't get this I get a 403 permissions error. I have set all my files to 777.

Thanks in advance for helping me to fix this.

As the error says the server does not find an index file with the listed extensions in that directory.

You can enable server-generated directory listing with the "Options Directive". See Indexes here. Then you will see what is actually in the directory.
