unfortunately the logfiles have been overwritten will do a new install. as soon as i get the same php messages i will store them and send them to you. but the questions rests, why the error treatment works with all tipped files instead php extension. if the user tips /xxx/inde /xxx/index.htm etc. error 404 is not displayed by the browser the redirection gets him to the page we want. but as soon as he tips /xxx/index.php or else with .php the browser answers with the windows 404 error message and our error treatment getting him to a certain page does not work anymore. thanks for your answers regards mike > > > - error_log entry > > This would be useful... > > > > - access_log entry > > so would this... > > > > - do you actually have PHP installed? > > > no > > > > > > > - is it configured correctly and working on existing URLs? > > > > > > Incidentally, I'm a little bemused by this problem of "high > > > importance" - it is not usual that users surf a site by typing in > > > random URLs in the hope that they lead to a page.
