    Re: ubuntu server apache 2 wont load pictures from sub directory

    There are two levels of security involved when using Apache. One is the OS permissions on the directory where the files are stored. However Apache itself restricts what directories may be listed and which files may be displayed. The default is very restrictive; only /var/www and its subdirectories can be displayed.

    The OP hasn't really told us where the files are located or the contents of the relevant <Directory> stanza in the configuration file for this directory. Unless there is an "Options Indexes" entry in this stanza, the directory cannot be listed except via an "index" file like "index.html" or "index.php". OP, I suggest looking at this explanation of the Options directive.
    If you ask for help, do not abandon your request. Please have the courtesy to check for responses and thank the people who helped you.

    Re: ubuntu server apache 2 wont load pictures from sub directory

    Hmm I have all my data in a subdirectory under /var/www/ziggy-dog.eu/public_html/

    Where should I go to add the configuration for that directory and what should I call that directory in the configuration
    my images live at /var/www/ziggy-dog.eu/public_html/images/

    I am not really that good with apache, and find the documentation really messy.

    What is your root web directory set to in your apache configuration file?

    Is /var/www set to root directory or is /var/www/public_html set to root directory?

    just to clarify they're talking about DocumentRoot

    can you print the information for your virtualhost

    Code:
    cat /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/site
    Where site=the name of your virtualhost (if you haven't modified it you should have a file named "000-default"

    e.g.
    Code:
    cat /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
    Ubuntu Server User - OSX and Windows Desktop

    This does not jive with the directory in question.

    Have you added your own virtualhost file?

    Please post output:

    Code:
    ls /etc/apache2/sites-enabled
    Please read examples offered. Often times members offer help in the form of generic info, which in turn you need to apply to your specific situation.

    Please also post output of:

    Code:
    ls -al /var/www/ziggy-dog.eu
    Nothing is ever easy, but if it is difficult you must be doing it wrong.

    Re: ubuntu server apache 2 wont load pictures from sub directory

    In /var/www/ziggy-dog
    there is a error.log (which should not be there.)
    and then directories public_html and logs, with 744

    in the other there is only 000-default and ziggy-dog.eu

    I don't know why you're reluctant to post what is requested. Perhaps someone else can help you with their crystal ball.

    Fix your DocumentRoot.
