|
|
my site has a folder containing static images ie /images
when i hit the url site.com/images, i see my image listing! so i added indexingore* to the htaccess file in root to hide all listing..
but now when i hit site.com/images, i see
Index of /static
Name Last modified Size Description
Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu) Server at www.site.com Port 80
how can i not show this page? or redirect to a default page?
do i do a redirect in the htaccess file? but if i want to apply this to 10 other directories, does that mean i have to add a redirect for all those 10 directories? |

indexignore is just telling it to not index those files- you want it to not generate an index at all, which is Options -Indexes .
Or you can put a generic index.html file in each directory. |

For best practice, you should do this in your httpd.conf file.
Something like:
<Directory /your/site>
Options -Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
</directory>
Remember to apply this within <Virtualhost> tags. |
