Apache 2.2 not reading index.php as default - HTML Forums

nisim7 · 05-06-2006, 01:38 AM

Apahce 2.2 is not loading any index.php files as default. Now, before you tell me to simply set my directorylisting accordingly, or an .htaccess file, I have done both. It reads .html indexs but if a .php is the index then it gives me a directory listing and it is annoying the heck out of me. Again, I have my httpd.conf set up correctly so I am completely at a loss as to what to do. You all may be as well but any help would be greatly appreciated.

That being said, if I type the full URL (e.g. http://localhost/test/index.php) then it works but I must include the index.php into the URL.

so in the httpd.conf file did you mean this

DirectoryIndex

make sure index.php is listed first, not last.

Yep, that is what I meant and index.php is leading. I have never seen this before. I found one other person on the internet, through a google search, who has had this problem but no one responded to his thread so still no solution.

Then I would back rev to apache 2.0. Seems to be a bug.

Thanks, I figured that is what I would have to do but I wanted to know if there was a known solution.

After you edit httpd.conf you always have to remember to restart apache web server.

If only they had known, five years ago. :|

I know this has been up before, but could we discuss a function to lock threads after X days/weeks/months and add a 'requesting unlocking - I have vital information'-button attached to it? :-]
