No virtual hosts, chroots or any complicating factor that I can think of. Webapp-config is installed here but I haven't used it. When I rsync'd my site to /var/www/localhost/htdocs on the local server, Apache wouldn't display any images, saying that I didn't have permission. All files had the same ownership so something must be awry in the server config. So I moved the site from there to ~/public_html where it works properly apart from the included file I mentioned. On second thoughts, I see the .htaccess file, which was missing from the local server, has a rewrite rule referring to images. Does that explain this problem? > If you want help with the specific error I would suggest posting the > contents of the .htaccess file and which version of Apache you're > using. Right, thanks!
