[users@httpd] DirectoryIndex

Hi

I want to put as home page as below sequance
index.shtml index.cfm index.htm home.htm index.php --- Index.shtml Index.cfm 
Index.htm Home.htm Index.php

I have edit httpd.conf in /etc/httpd/conf but it is not working as I want. 
Ex I have file call index.cfm in http://infopoint.co.ug/cfmdate/index.cfm 
when I type http://infopoint.co.ug/cfmdate it should open home page

Pls tell me what to do

Amin
# DirectoryIndex: sets the file that Apache will serve if a directory

# is requested.

#

# The index.html.var file (a type-map) is used to deliver content-

# negotiated documents. The MultiViews Option can be used for the

# same purpose, but it is much slower.

#

DirectoryIndex at_domains_index.html index.html index.html.var index.shtml 
index.cfm index.htm home.htm index.php --- Index.shtml Index.cfm Index.htm 
Home.htm Index.php

Yes - that is indeed working. Try changing DirectoryIndex from:

DirectoryIndex at_domains_index.html index.html index.html.var 
index.shtml index.cfm index.htm home.htm index.php --- Index.shtml 
Index.cfm Index.htm Home.htm Index.php

to:

DirectoryIndex at_domains_index.html index.html index.html.var 
index.shtml index.cfm index.htm home.htm index.php  Index.shtml 
Index.cfm Index.htm Home.htm Index.php

Note the three dashes have been removed.

Best 'o' luck,
Gene

I'm not sure permissions is the problem (unless it's the cfmdate 
directory) since asking for the specific file ('index.cfm') works.  I 
tend to go along with the '---' in the middle of the line theory. A 
simple check - does a file named 'index.html' in the same directory work?

What is the "---" doing in the middle there?

Anyway, the page is currently giving a "forbidden" error, which means
some kind of permissions problem.  Start by checking your apache error
log.
