Hello,
I have just reinstalled my OS because my CMS was not loading templates and stylesheets to web users. I also noticed I was getting "Direct Access to this location is not allowed." when I created another folder and uploaded a website seperate from my CMS.
Now the OS is reinstalled, I'm using XP Pro for development and test hosting. Same problem with no stylesheets being displayed to web users. Still "Direct Access to this location is not allowed." even when I create a folder and put in a downloaded free template.....
Please help me, I know its a windows problem but I'm freaking out here.
Windows firewall is off. I have kept it OFF.
Fresh OS install XP SP 2.
Install of C++ redistributable
Network file share works after running network setup wizard.
Static IP assigned and correct router config.
I mean the set up is perfect except this strange problem, like I said a CMS displays and works fine for localhost, and web users see text but cant use links or anything outside of the cms root.
Please help me if possible
Thanks
Matt B.
