I am getting this error when trying to access a virtual website index by ip address and port on a host that has SELinux disabled (another issue over which I have less control than I wish): curl http://192.168.6.9:41780 | more Gives this error in /var/log/httpd/error_log [Mon Jun 10 09:04:44 2013] [error] [client 192.168.6.9] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /tftpboot/ and displays the default Centos/Apache server page instead of the list of files in the directory. This virtual host is defined thus: Listen 192.168.6.9:41780 <VirtualHost 192.168.6.9:41780> DocumentRoot "/tftpboot" <Directory "/tftpboot"> allow from all Options +Indexes </Directory> </VirtualHost> If I specify a known file within /tftpboot then that file's contents are displayed properly. It is only the index that appears to fail. So, what configuration error have I made? Why am I not getting a list of the contents of /tftpboot ? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.
