Otherwise it can't work out the true directory names 'users', 'user', 'my website' and the actual contents of the site, so the <directory > processing will terminate and file request is not recognized as legit. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
