I am trying to change a website I have created to be a little more user friendly. When I add a new pages, I get an index of/businesses page. What am I doing wrong?

leash14 · 11-Dec-2006, 07:42 PM #2

Check out www.franklinny.org, the business directory. It currently is very dull. I wanted to break it down into more categories, but when i upload my data i get index of/business rather than the site.

I am not advertising my own site. I am asking for help. Maybe this site is useless if there are people like you on it. Never mind, I will figure it out myself or go elsewhere for help. Thanks for ruining a good experience on this site "namenotfound".

No not you, I was talking to cupteadesign (hence why I quoted his posts).
In both his posts, he couldn't help but plug his own site.

You're fine

But thank you for jumping to conclusions

You basically said "I don't want to help you here, but join my site and I'll help."

So you're the one that had "useless" posts

So you join sites, to advertise your own site? Exactly what I said in my first post!

If your really wanted to "help", you'd help on the board the question is currently being asked on. But you're here to advertise, not help

You're the one that's continuing this. All I did was make ONE comment to you. Then one to the other guy explaining that I wasn't talking about him.

It was over.

YOU still felt the need to whine about why you're not advertising.

Now I'm tired of your childish attitude. I have people to help, I can't spend all my time catering to you.

leash14 · 11-Dec-2006, 09:52 PM #9

What did you expect me to think. and considering you did not give any useful information to my question why did you even bother to respond. you more or less must bashed someone for helping out even if it meant going to another site.

Well it's pretty OBVIOUS if you see me quoting him, that I'm commenting about him and not you

As to your question: Are you keeping the file name the same when you change the page, that is index.html? If you change the name, whereby no longer having in index file, that's why you're getting the "index of/businesses" page.

http://www.franklinny.org/index.html

Now this reply right here is far MORE help than what cupteadesign was responding with. Because all he was doing was posting his site.

Sequal7 · 10:52 PM

First, lety me try to address your question leash14;
I do not follow your question. Are you saying that when you connect via FTP it shows the folder business instead of the server root folder? Please clarify this so I can assist you.

cupteadesign.....
I find it interesting that a supposable design company uses pre-built paid for forum software
You must be very good at what you do?

About useless posts

If you claim to want to provide support to people then do that on these forums instead of spamming your own site.

Claims that techguy members are not able to help here is just BS and you have no right to make such a claim.
Members of these forums have helped hundreds of people resolve errors and computer problems,I personally have helped many members here and do not appreciate your frivolous remarks about the usefulness of these forums.

Your posts violate techguy server rules and continuation will get you removed.

Please leave the moderating to us, we can handle it fine. If you see an obvious ad, use the report thread tool to let us know. There is no reason for you to get into a verbal battle with the parties involved, look what it evolved into here. I don't see that you had any useful suggestions for the original party, which should be the only reason for posting to the thread.

Thanks for your cooperation.

DrP · 12-Dec-2006, 11:17 AM **#13**

I'll help! Or, at least try!
What do you mean when you say you keep getting Index of/businesses?
I visited the page you were on about and it looks fine to me, though I do agree with you that it needs improving. It looks like a list of links, basically. Is that the problem you are referring to?

Thank you for the moderation JohnWill, that is exactly why I did it. I see his posts were removed too, thanks.

Telling members to go to a different site is ok only if it has relevant information to solve your problem, but he was simply trying to take you from here to post on his forums, thats not conducive of the forums rules, thats all that was meant by that, no hurt towards you was intended.

Please don't be perturbed, lets try to solve this. We need clarification on the error your getting as we don't quite understand what the problem is right now.
Is the problem with an FTP connection?
A document?
A web script?

namenotfound · 04:23 PM

I deleted the post where I quoted him, since his links were in my quotes. And sorry John, it just annoys me when I see blatant advertising like that. Next time I'll just report it.

I'm almost 100% sure you mean this (see attachment)

Like I said, make sure you still have index.html and you don't rename it to something like home.html or w/e
