I did notice that the DocumentRoot in the 'Main server configuration' section is /var/www/html. I messed around with that to see if I could get the /home/httpd/webdev/html directory working. Unfortunately I couldn't therefore I changed the DocumentRoot to /var/www/webdev/html and everything is working fine.There is obviously something funny with your setup that we are not privvy to. If you're saying that /home/httpd/webdev/html and /var/www/webdev/html are the same directory, then; - one is a symbolic link of the other, or - you have mounted the same disk-volume in two places, or - some other clever thing
/home/httpd/webdev/html and /var/www/webdev/html are two seperate directories with no symbolic link to the other.
In any case, /home/httpd/webdev/html no longer sounds like a plain directory under "/" so it is hardly suprising you get funny results. Of course, all this would be revealed immediately if you were to do: cd / ls -d cd /home ls -d cd /home/html ls -d cd /home/html/webdev ls -d As requested previously...
and... here's the results from / to /home/httpd/webdev/html and from / to /var/www/webdev/html
