Browsing to directory doesn't open index.htm

Tarantulus

hi guys,

this is probably a stupid question, but can anyone explain to me why when I navigate to www.mydomain.com it doesn't open the index.html file?

I have the following directive in my httpd.conf file:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 DirectoryIndex index.htm index.html index.php index.php3 default.html index.cgi index.htm
 

any ideas are appreciated as always

First, what operating system are you using?

hi!
Did you find any errors in logs in /var/log/error_log or access_log?

That's actually a good question. I never really understood how this works did you try to see if the DirectoryIndex uses precedence. For example if you list index.html before index.htm would that work?

Take a look at this... it might help. Let us know if this actually solved your problem.

it seems someone has been screwing with httpd.conf and now it won't start at all.
so I guess this is the least of my problems right now.
