Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2003 5:14 pm Post subject: Server cannot find index.html |
|
|
I am Having an issue with the Web Server finding my index file. I have pointed the exact path to the location of the index file, but I continue to get "ERROR 403 - Forbidden", when attempting http://streitz.servebeer.com. I can get directly yo the index file by http://streitz.servebeer.com/index.html. Is anyone else having this issue? Any Help is appreciated. Thanks. _________________ Bob Streitz |

thats wierd, try setting your domain to point to http://streitz.servebeer.com/ (i added a forward slash on the end).
That was it should search for a file in the root directory, and should find the index file if you have Abyss setup correctly.
i suggest launching Abyss - going to the control panel - finding the CGI parameters place, then entering checking that index.html is added to the list... it may be that just .htm is added... _________________

are you sure that index.html is listed in the Index File names table in server parameters? If not, and if automatic directory listing is off, error 403 occurs. _________________ Support Team

|
|
I'm having a similar problem to this. The company which owns my domain forwards it to a DNS server, which then re-directs it to my computer, this all worked fine up until yesterday when I tried monkeying around with it.
Recently my computer and modem have been borking with annoying regularity, so I decided to take advantage of the DNS servers' offline redirection service.
To do this I had to change the URL forwarding, and remove the trailing /index.html, now I cannot get the server to serve the index.html page as default. I get an error 404, and have had to put a 0 second redirect from the 404 page to my home page - not ideal. I have listed index.html in the INDEX portion of the console, and there are no other index files there to confuse it.
Can anyone help? :?

Okay, the DNS server wasn't putting a trailing / on the end of the URL, so I created an alias with / as the virtual path, and c:\program files\abyss web server\htdocs/ as the real path, and now it works. :D |
