I'm having a problem using the DirectoryIndex directive in Apache 1.3.41. Basically, it doesn't work. If I access the site as www.site.org, it correctly redirects to www.site.org/. It however returns a 404 error instead of the index.html Page. If I access the page directly, www.site.org/index.html, it works properly. I have verified that the index.html file exists and has the appropriate permissions. I have tried explicitly setting the DirectoryIndex directive globally, in the Virtual Host container, and even in a <Directory /> container, with no change in the performance of the site. Recompiling Apache from source did not change the behavior, so I'm thinking it's a configuration error. from httpd.conf: <VirtualHost XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX> ServerName www.site.org ServerAdmin webmaster@xxxxxxxx DocumentRoot /opt/apache/site DirectoryIndex index.html ServerAlias site.org ErrorLog logs/error_log TransferLog logs/access_log Options Indexes </VirtualHost> Log file results: #cat error_log [Fri Apr 4 11:32:19 2008] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] File does not exist: /opt/apache/site/ [Fri Apr 4 11:32:23 2008] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] File does not exist: /opt/apache/site/ [Fri Apr 4 11:32:24 2008] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] File does not exist: /opt/apache/site/ [Fri Apr 4 11:32:27 2008] [error] [client XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX] File does not exist: /opt/apache/site/ # cat access_log XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [04/Apr/2008:11:32:19 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 264 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [04/Apr/2008:11:32:23 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 264 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [04/Apr/2008:11:32:24 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 264 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX - - [04/Apr/2008:11:32:27 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 264 # ../bin/httpd -l Compiled-in modules: http_core.c mod_env.c mod_log_config.c mod_mime.c mod_negotiation.c mod_status.c mod_include.c mod_autoindex.c mod_dir.c mod_cgi.c mod_asis.c mod_imap.c mod_actions.c mod_userdir.c mod_alias.c mod_access.c mod_auth.c mod_so.c mod_setenvif.c mod_ssl.c suexec: disabled; invalid wrapper /opt/apache/bin/suexec --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
