Quick Apache Question


Hi, just a quick question. I have wordpress installed on my web server, and when you go to my site, it gives you a directory listing of all the wordpress files, instead I want it to point at the index page (index.php) I know there is an option for this in the httpd.conf, but it doesn't appear to be working, presumably as it wants to point at an html file and not php. Can anyone shed any light on this? Many thanx.

In your config file, look for the DirectoryIndex value. It probably looks something like
Code:
# directory index.  Separate multiple entries with spaces.
    DirectoryIndex index.html
at the moment. As it says, you can seperate multiple entries with spaces, so if you want to be able to use index.html or index.php as the index file, set it to
Code:
# directory index.  Separate multiple entries with spaces.
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.php
