-----Original Message----- From: Frederick Lamartin [mailto:fhlamartin@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, July 31, 2007 7:20 PM To: users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: HTTP Error: "Website declined to show this webpage." Here's exactly what I have: UserDir enabled UserDir "C:/Users/Lamartin/My Website" <Directory "C:/Users/Lamartin/My Website">
These match. Should work.
AllowOverride None
Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Includes ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
But, there is no reason to check the configuration; my Apache program
appears not to be working (error logging stopped,
http://localhost/ doesn't
locate index page).
What do you mean? Do you get an apache error (404, 500 etc.) or a browser/system error (address not found, server not listening etc.) Switch off friendly messaging and/or use a technically adept browser like FireFox to see what's really happening and not what the browser thinks you might want to hear.
Using Restart and Start commands is no help. Assume I need to reinstall?
Bit drastic.. since this is windows, I believe a reboot is the canonical thing to try ;-) Rgds, Owen Boyle Disclaimer: Any disclaimer attached to this message may be ignored.
