Aparajita,

I changed to:

Root = <default>/web/dir1
Default page = <default>Index.html

Then I tested using the path:
http://192.168.2.1/index.html
This worked, indicating the Root assignment was correct.

Then I removed the <default> from the Default Page assignment in
Active4D.ini and used only:
Default page = index.html
...and the Index.html loaded correctly when referencing http://192.168.2.1

Thanks for guiding me in the right direction!
David Ringsmuth

Please read the comments in Active4D.ini a little more closely. It says:

"If a user requests a directory without a filename, a default file  
within that directory
is served. This option determines the names of the files to try."

Note that it says "a default file ***within that directory*** is  
served." If you ask for http://192.168.2.1/, that is the root  
directory (/web), NOT /web/dir1.

Change the root to <default>/web/dir1, and default page to Index.html.

Kind regards,
