Gazley Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Hi there, I have just moved my site on localhost from docroot/ProcessWire up one level to docroot. If I try and access the admin module: localhost:8888/processwire - I just see: Index of /processwire Parent Directory .idea/ Is what I have done a No-No on localhost? I was really trying to really simulate how the site would be installed on the live server but now, I cannot get the the admin setup. Any suggestions? Thanks!

SiNNuT Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 It seems localhost:8888/processwire is just an empty directory? Then it's quite obvious that it doesn't work. Maybe you should explain a little bit better how you've got things set up and which files are where. You say you want to simulate, but what exactly do you want to simulate? URL's that come close? What is sometimes do is setup a vhost and adjust my hosts file (windows) That way you can have for example www.mydomain.dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazley Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Nope, there is no directory called "processwire" - only "site" and "wire". If I enter localhost:8888 - the site loads as expected. I typed in localhost:8888/processwire to simply administer the site - somehow, it appears to be being interpreted as a directory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazley Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Thanks Guys, @WillyC - that thought entered my head but I'm running on a Mac where the underlying OS is case-sensitive. I'll try your suggestions and thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 @WillyC - that thought entered my head but I'm running on a Mac where the underlying OS is case-sensitive. If you do actually have a directory called /ProcessWire/ and you are accessing the URL /processwire/ then it doesn't matter if your OS is case sensitive as it's Apache that's connecting URLs to directories, not the OS. I'm running on MAMP in OS X and it is not case sensitive with the URL paths, meaning /ProcessWire/ is no different than /processwire/. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
