Hi Bitnami Support,

I've removed the index page, however, my Wordpress website which is in a folder is not loading. On hitting wp-admin it shows error

Not Found
The requested URL was not found on this server.

Kindly support.

Hi @huzanf ,

This is a basic question about Apache. I can see you have this in the htdocs folder

apache/htdocs:
total 20
drwxrwxr-x  3 bitnami root   4096 Sep 15 13:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 16 root    root   4096 Apr 19 10:39 ..
-rw-rw-r--  1 bitnami root   4851 Apr 19 14:05 index.html
drwxrwxr-x  6 bitnami daemon 4096 Sep 15 15:57 XYZ

The WordPress' files are inside the XYZ folder but Apache is using htdocs as DocumentRoot

<VirtualHost _default_:80>
  DocumentRoot "/opt/bitnami/apache/htdocs"

You will need to configure both bitnami.conf and bitnami-ssl.conf files to point to the XYZ folder. However, we sugget you follow our guide to deploy the app, not using the htdocs folder as you did

HI am facing the same issue. Installed LAMP by Bitnami yesterday on Ec2. We have uploaded 2 new files to the /opt/bitnami/apache/htdocs/ folder. However whilst it shows these files in FileZilla, in the correct folder, when we open the folder using ssh, it shows a different index.html file which is the original bitnami home page. https://teyzee.site is our website.

Let us know if you need more information

I also checked the apache bitnami.conf and apache.conf files and all point to /opt/bitnami/apache/htdocs/

Please ensure you are uploading the file to the correct server using FileZilla. If the file was uploaded, the file must be there, there is no process to remove "extra" files in the htdocs folder.

If you continue running into issues, just SSH into the instance and manually create the file there (copy/paste the content using the command line editor)

[ariapythonguy]

Yes i triple checked it is the same instance by copying the ssh from AWS. Never faced this before.

[ariapythonguy]

I need to upload a lot of files so dont think this copy paste is going to work. Will be great if you can suggest where these files actually are

Sorry you were right it was the wrong instance - it's fine now. facepalm
