Hello,
I have some questions for my interchange website.
If i write my url : www.secan.net instead to have:
http://www.secan.net/cgi-bin/construct/index.html , i only got www.secan.net
Can you please tell me why.
Because i found out if i write only www.webuildpcs.com , i got this url:
http://www.webuildpcs.com/cgi-bin/wbpcstore/index.html
That's i what i would like to have.

Thank' you for your help.

Good luck

Go in your Browser and delete all 'Cashed files' and try again

Hi,

If you are using Apache as your webserver you can put a redirect rule in to
have www.secan.net/index.html redirect to the cgi-bin program. Here's the
rule that goes in the virtual host section of httpd.conf:

Redirect /index.html http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/yourcatname

Search the list for redirect and it will turn up a mailing to
redirect/rewrite everything so the user will not see the cgi-bin program in
the URL.

Good luck!
-Ron

You could also use the following

DirectoryIndex index.html
/cgi-bin/construct/index.html

Just make sure you have no idex.html file in the
server root.

You can also do the following.

Modify the following directive in your httpd.conf.
DirectoryIndex index.html /cgi-bin/construct/index.html

Make sure you remove the index.html for your server root. Now all requests
that do not specify a file will first look for index.html if not found send
them to your store front.

Keep in mind you may also have other directives such as "index.htm"
"index.php" ...
And I only used /cgi-bin/construct/index.html to illustrate the syntax. You
would of course need to use your own path to the store's home page.
