Topic: Odd directory issue

[David]

I have a directory within my /primary/html tree named /files. So, it's /primary/html/files. So far so good. However, if I try and browse to anything, and I mean anything within that folder I get a 404. If I rename the folder to anything else it's fine and there's no problem. Is this a documented limitation due to path association or some such thing; or is it just evidence of my own ballsed up configuration?

Never mind. Found it in httpd.conf:

 # primary content

    DocumentRoot         /home/e-smith/files/primary/html
    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /home/e-smith/files/primary/cgi-bin
    Alias       /files   /home/e-smith/files/primary/files

I guess I can live without using that directory. Seems odd that I have to, though.
