Bubba 2 Front end no longer accessable

All,

I've had Bubba 2 up and running for a good while now ... when hitting my root URL for my server eg http://www.mybubba.com/ (thats not my actual URL) I use to get the Bubba 2 Front End and hitting http://www.mybubba.com/html/somefile.html I use to see my static content.

Since the last few days and without doing any changes on the Server I can no longer see the Bubba 2 Front End ... instead when I goto my root URL I get the directory of the file in /home/web ie the directory of my static content.

I haven't (knowningly) changed apache2.conf or httpd.conf (httpd.conf is still emtpy).

I've tried uninstalling the bubba2 front end package and reinstalling but this has not helped.

How do I get the Bubba 2 Front End interface running again ?

1) does the directory that you see instead of the website contain a file named index.html or index.php or something like this?

2) are you able to log into the SSH shell of your bubba and look at the log files for the web server?

1) Not at the moment .. it did have an index.html so I removed it to see if that made any difference. The only differnce it made is that now I see the directory view of the files as there is no longer a default file.

2) Yes I can SSH in

Now I'm puzzled. If you put the index.html file back, what do you see?

+Can you post the output of

Code: Select all

 tail -n 200 /var/log/apache2/error.log

I found that the front end was actually up and running but my root folder was not forwarding to /admin which it use to do.

So I have added the following line to the virtual host def :-

RedirectMatch ^/$ /admin/

Now hitting my URL with no path takes me to Bubba admin page.
