I know this has to have been asked before but for the life of me i cant
find the answer in the archives or on the apache website.  Google also
was not able to provide the answer.  Perhaps this is because im not
exactly sure what the problem is.

I have a centos 3.4 server running apache 2.0.46

Very old version.  You should upgrade before trying to debug.

Id love to.  However, this is the latest version available for this 

platform without installing manually.  I dont want to break any 

dependencies and yum complains if i try to install a newer version than 

what it sees available.

I have a bunch of files in a directory and i wish to access these files
via web.  This works great for most files but some dont show up.  I have
an .iso file which apache seems to want to hide from view.  Is this
mod_autoindex not showing this file or something else?  How can i make
apache show all files?  I cant seem to figure this out

The only files that apache hides are those listed in IndexIgnore and
those that are not accessible to the client.  Check those two
conditions first.

I've heard some reports of problems on some systems with very-large
files, which might match your ISO.  But you should upgrade to a more
recent version before looking into that further.

This seems to be exactly what is going on.  I have multiple isos which 

are over 3gb in size.  I tried renaming it to something else (.txt) and 

it still hides it so i dont believe it to be related to the extension of 

the file.

Thanks for the infomation.  I'll bring this over to the centos list to 

see how i can upgrade apache without causing problems.

Thanks again

Jim
