Hi,

I know this is something simple, but i dont know how to fix it.

When i go to mydomain.com/gallery
it gives me a list of all the files in that directory

how do i make mydomain.com/gallery redirect to the albums.php script?

kind regards
eek

You should add the following lines to your Apache httpd.conf config. file:

<IfModule mod_dir.c>
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php
</IfModule>

You probably already have the index.html but should add the index.php one. Then stop and restart your webserver.

HI,

Thanks for your help.

all i needed to do was add the index.php to the DirectoryIndex line in apache 2.

cheers

hey all,

I'm a newbie to setting this up, but I understood everything and configuration was successful. Now I just want my Gallery front page to show up when someone types in "mydomain.com"/photos. Right now the the directory everything is in is "gallery" but I figure I can just change that through FTP, then re-configure the Gallery settings, right?

But I can't find the "httpd.conf" file to make the change in. I searched for it both on my server through the FTP program and using Finder (my hidden files are visible) on my Mac, but no luck. I just want the URL for my gallery page to be mydomain.com/photos and then when someone clicks an album it becomes /photos/albumname....

I looked through the forums and in the FAQ for awhile, but only found information that wasn't specific to what I wanted to do. Any help would be appreciated.

sps
