get rid of wordpress and anything else, install a temp placeholder index.html file, get it working with basics before expanding, if that works, then your problem is wordpress and you should take it up with their lists/forums/newsgroups

I thought I would implement it according to online documentation. I retyped an equivalent excerpt from my sites-available directory. ServerName www.example.com [1] ServerAlias example.com DocumentRoot /var/www/example.com/ht-docs/ When I perform the telnet 80 test, I get a "501 Not Implemented", but the wget command pulls the index.html correctly. I never trust a web browser when diagnosing a web page because they like to cache web files. I used telnet to simulate a web browser request, as explained in a blog, but it is apparently wrong... This is the offending article I used, by the way. http://www.the-art-of-web.com/system/telnet-http11/ [2] > Best -- Paul > ------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To > unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional > commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org Links: ------ [1] http://www.example.com [2] http://www.the-art-of-web.com/system/telnet-http11/
