Default site edit not recognizing index.hym file - 03-29-2009 , 03:27 PM






Going through the Site/Edit function to change server information, DW told me
it can't find the index.htm file. Waiting on more information from the host -
beside the new IP address, the password has been changed and the upload path.

While I'm waiting on that info want to make sure there's not something on my
end that could be wrong. The file is in the root directory, the name has not
changed, and the default file extension is set to .htm. Is there something I
could have done to cause this? The site's been up for years, and I last
changed it successfully last month or the month before.

No, it's telling you that you haven't told it which file is your home page.
Find it, right click, and choose "Set as Home Page". Bada bing, bada boom.

In Site view, right click(Control click - Mac) index.htm icon in the
local panel,select "set as home page"

Ba-da Bing, Ba-da Boom is right. That was a little too easy. Thanks so much.
