I am probabl;y a dummy but when i load (or publish) index.html into the main dir and check my homepage i only get 404 error. No matter which folder i put index.html (designed in dreamweaver, no strange things, simpel page) i keep getting the 404 error....
The requested URL / was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

What folder did you put it in.

Make sure it is going in the public_html folder.

What is your actual domain/url you are visiting.

Files need to go in: /home/<USERNAME>/domains/<YOURDOMAINHERE>/public_html
 
You need to create an index.html index.htm or index.php to have your page visable. What was the name of the file you put in public_html.

There is alot of good information here:

This i know, i have put index.html in that folder, refreshed browser, but nothign seems to appear only this message:
Apache is functioning normally

Anyway, thanks for your link, i studied that one already but besides that the files seem to be in the correct folder, no further information unfortunately.
 
Because i was fed up with this, i coped index.htm in all logical dir's but nothing seems to work......:eek:
 
It has to be all lowercase letters it cannot have a capital I like you have it now

Index.html is not index.html

rename it to index.html

You earned the right to call me dummy now, that is basic stuff and i didnot even notice it, renamed it and it works!!!
Thanks!
 
It's working here. Perhaps you've been looking at a page or error message cached in your browser?

Meanwhile it is working here as well, there was, despite emptyign it, still a cache problem with my browser. On my laptop it worked fine but the desktop kept making problems. Re-installation of firefox solved.
