I'm currently having issues with a customer site on my GoDaddy hosting (it's terrible). I've moved their wordpress site to my HostGator hosting, it's working fine, but where a URL should usually show a page (modernlanguages.org/crosswords) it's showing it as a directory list. See pictures: GoDaddy: http://puu.sh/3thwP HostGator: http://puu.sh/3tjDh.png What would cause this? The folder permissions on Godaddy seem to be 705 with 604 on the files, whereas HostGator is giving 755/644, but even when I match the permissions to be exact I still get the same issue?
Hello there, Have you verified that all of the files were moved over? From the directory listing on HG, I don't see an index file, just directories. You could be missing an .htaccess file as well that rewrites the url as well. Regards, Chris
My .htaccess file looks like this; # BEGIN s2Member GZIP exclusions <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|\?|&)s2member_file_download\=.+ [OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (^|\?|&)no-gzip\=1 RewriteRule .* - [E=no-gzip:1] </IfModule> # END s2Member GZIP exclusions # BEGIN WordPress <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> # END WordPress PHP:
Also, what index file should there be? there is no index file on my GoDaddy version, it's a straight swap. Modernlanguages.org/crosswords/ should display a wordpress page not the documents in the directory
