Simple path question... 1

[admoore]

If my site URL is:

http://www.mysite.com

and I have a subdirectory under the htdocs called stuff

How can I configure Apache to accept the URL

http://www.mysite.com/stuff

instead of requiring the trailing slash?

i.e.

http://www.mysite.com/stuff/

TIA,

-Allen

In the httpd.conf you should find the following:

# Note that if you include a trailing / on fakename then the server will
# require it to be present in the URL. So "/icons" isn't aliased in this
# example, only "/icons/". If the fakename is slash-terminated, then the
# realname must also be slash terminated, and if the fakename omits the
# trailing slash, the realname must also omit it.

Alias /icons/ "C:/phpdev/apache/icons/"

<Directory &quot;C:/phpdev/apache/icons&quot;>
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

This refers to an alias but check you virtual directive for the trailing slash. Also Front Page extensions may cause your system to require a trailing /.
