Richard - Thanks. "you need to do basic troubleshooting -- we can't do it for you" Totally agree. However, in this case, I did not know what to do. I am NOT an expert programmer. Sorry for the questions that follow, but I am still in the dark.... -- have you reviewed your Apache configuration to be certain of where the "document root" of your "primary host" is? Looked in Apache2.conf and did not see any reference to primary host or document root. start.php is in /var/www made the following change in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl.conf DocumentRoot /var/www/ root@meow:/var/log# cat apache2/error.log <snip>'[Tue Apr 14 00:51:10.502172 2015] [:error] [pid 7610] [client ::1:53486] script '/var/www/html/start.php' not found or unable to stat
