Ok, thanks another time, I try to use cookies with php. >> >> > Does /path/to/webpage/1/2/4 exist? >> >> Yes, I'm sure.

I'm rephrase the question too... when create an alias, for example (using real pathnames): Alias /foo "/home/especial" <Directory "/home/especial"> Options None AllowOverride None Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> And type http://my.server/foo (typing: http://my.server/foo/index.html return the same) server returns not found... In directory /home/especial, I have an index.html file. >> > what's in the error_log [error] [client 123.123.123.123] File does not exist: [error] [client 123.123.123.123] File does not exist: /var/www/foo > I'm getting mixed up - I know you don't want to post your real path names, > but you're using the "/path/to/.." shorthand inconsistently and now I > don't know what you mean.
