    hi

    am not sure if this is correct place to post this - if not can mod please move as appropriate? thanks.

    ok - have a sun4u-solaris10 (update1) system with apache2 installed.

    /etc/apache2/httpd.conf has ReadmeName set to README

    if i browse to a few locations (accessible by http) i set the directory listing but the README is not display. i have confirmed that there is a README in the locations i am browsing and that they are readable.

    anyone have any ideas? i checked to see if there were any bugs against this but only found one, not sure if it is relevent:

    http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21372

    i have tried README.txt, README.htm, README.html but to no avail. I check my mime-types and text/plain is set to "asc" and "txt"

    any ideas....please?

    thanks - laoisfan

    The bug is for 1.3 Apache

    Try setting the
    ReadmeName set to README.html
    save conf file restart apache

    Remember to watch out for lower case and upper case.

    thanks for that.

    if i set it to README.html or README.txt then it works fine. i will go with README.txt as then people can just create plain text files and not have to worry about extra html etc.

    i did a global find on all README files and just copied them to README.txt for the time being - at least they will be visible when browsed now.

    but i am still curious as to why README is not being displayed!!! hmmmm
