Website not defaulting to index.php

[rmeyer137]

I had an odd issue today. I'm using ISPConfig 3 on Ubuntu 9.10.

One of my domains is configure with modPHP with the Auto subdomain set to www.

The site was working fine a few days ago then all of a sudden it stopped working, bringing up the generic 404 error page.

When I checked the site it was still on the disk. I could even ftp to it. I deleted the site then recreated it. Now I need to have an index.htm redirect to the index.php to view the site.

I believe the issue may have been caused by Ubuntu updates, but I can't be sure of that.

How can I get the index.php be the default page when going to the domain?

Thanks

Just delete the index.htm or index.html file in this site, this makes index.php the default index.

I did notice that behavior when I first uploaded the site. How ever that's not the case now. It doesn't default to the index.php when the others are removed. That's why I'm confused.

Maybe you uploaded a .htaccess file that overrides the default behaviour. Check your wesbite directory for .htaccess files and if they specify a different index.

The .htaccess file has nothing in it. I think this is the default for .htaccess

Same problem..

Is there an .htaccess file in a higher level directory?
