I have my website (www.alexanderlade.com), and when I visit the website, I get an index of all the files on the server.
That means that my index file is missing. Well, I have my index file on the server, and I have it placed under the correct directory (public_html) but it will NOT open whenever somebody visits my website. How do I have the index file (or ANY file for that matter) open when somebody visits my site? Thanks for reading! |

Re: Website "Index" Problems!
Hey, i see you're using apache, try looking at the directory index module: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod...directoryindex
(basic instructions on changing it:) http://bignosebird.com/apache/a2.shtml and see if index.html or whatever is the correct setting... is it supposed to be 400.shtml? sorry but i didn't see an index? Cheers, Jamey |

Re: Website "Index" Problems!
I noticed "public_html" is inside of that also...I'm not the most versed with Apache, but I'm pretty sure that should be your actual website directory - so it looks like things are set up funny.

Re: Website "Index" Problems!
You need to make the root of your website in public_html.
EG: Put your index or home page there. That should sort it out. EDIT: opps... I re read the post.... It appears to be an Apache server setup problem. If you have access to the setup, the configuration, I believe you may need to edit (in notepad) the file httpd.conf You need to set the root as public_html.
