No, this is caused by the Indexes setting in your Options statement in
your httpd.conf file, or other included file for this directory
(welcome.conf). Consult your config and the apache documentation for
details. If you're serving up the standard welcome to centos page,
this is actually an error page because you have no other page to
default to. create a blank index.html page or put something there and
you won't get this.
