Webspace Location

[Dan]

Currently my webspace is dan[insert surname]@adsl24.co.uk Is there a way of changing this to not include my surname ?

[James]

Thats an e-mail address, the website would be dan[surname].adsl24.co.uk but yes, send us a quick e-mail with what you want it changing to...

[Dan]

if you could just remove my surname from the site address that would be great thanks :)

[Dan]

Sorry to be a pain but did anyone manage to get round to making the change on Friday ?

http://dan.adsl24.co.uk/ doesn't appear to be working

Did you send James an email about it as he requested? Even though he does monitor the forums closely it's always better to either email or raise a ticket if you need something changing in your account so they have a record of it.

[James]

Changed :) Bear in mind the username changes to "dan" to

[Dan]

Cool thanks James

I am used to setting up websites using the machine themselves (ie through IIS) I have put up a simple under construction page (index.html) in the www folder.

I am having problems with it not automatically going to www.dan.adsl24.co.uk/index.html

I couldnt find where you would set that up to automatically search for an index (in IIS it automatically looks for index.htm or index.html etc)

When I then setup a redirect from dan.adsl24.co.uk to goto dan.adsl24.co.uk/index.html to get around the problem

I then get a 302 error as below when I tried to access dan.adsl24.co.uk

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /index.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.html index.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.html index.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.html index.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.html index.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.htmlindex.html index.html on this server.

Additionally, a 302 Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

I have not changed any permissions and the file can be accessed when you go directly to it.

Man I miss IIS :(

Just dropping an index.htm file into the www folder works for me - maybe the name change takes time to update?

[James]

I renamed Index.html to index.html as unix is case sensitive so has to be lowercase for the index.html page. That redirect you have in the .htaccess just made it permenantly loop...

When I go to http://dan.adsl24.co.uk it now shows up just fine...
