Redirect Problem? [resolved]

AlphaOfDoom
Hi!

I just got my domain switched.

My forum for my site is located in a /board directory. I have nothing in root. So I added a redirect from root to the board directory.

I refreshed my browser, even restarted my PC, but when I go to the site - it takes me to

Great Success !
Apache is working on your cPanel® and WHM™ Server

If you can see this page, then the people who manage this server have installed cPanel and WebHost Manager (WHM) which use the Apache Web server software and the Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) successfully.

Try Board as lower case "board" and you seem to lacking in the CSS department.

CSS department??? Pretty much -- I don't know CSS at all, but why do you say that?.....and ok I'll try..

Ok It's lower case for the redirect but it still won't redirect when I type http://sherwood.trap17.com ..

Weird, it redirects for me. I'ma assume that the redirect is from headers sent to the browser, 'cause i can't go back in my browser's history. What browser are you using? Did you try other browsers?

I'm using firefox, no I haven't. Let me try now...

Hmm...It redirected in opera....redirected in Iexplorer...


Why won't it work in firefox!? Firefox is my default...

ALSO I NOTICED -- Why is the site all messed up in internet explorer and opera....there isn't images or anything...it's weird...but in firefox, I see everything fine.....>.>

You are missing a CSS file, or at least the Server can't find it.
This is where it should be: http://sherwoodinfo.trap17.com/board/theme...fault/style.css. If you are using the default theme, let me know if you require a new css file and I can send you one.

Actually, here it is: http://jlhaslip.trap17.com/aef102/themes/default/style.css.
I modded it to centre the heading and make the shoutbox taller, but you can find the changes near the top of the file and alter them to suit your site easily enough.

Ok well I looked there and it has the style.css is there....but what do you mean exactly? I'm still pretty new to all this......

The required Css file (style.css) is missing from the themes/default folder on your Hosting account.
Click the link I posted up there to 'snag' the file, then cut and paste it into another file on your desktop, then FTP it to the location specified on your hosting account. Or go into Cpanel and copy it yto the correct location.

Cross all that out--

Topic solved.

I completely deleted my old AEF site and made a new one at http://sherwood.trap17.com. It's in the root directory, so the redirect problem is solved,

and because it's a solid install, not choppy like the last one, the CSS is good and it works in all browsers.

So, this is resolved!!

    could point me to? Also, part of the problem, the other host did not offer many advanced features
