DirectoryIndex — specify the default page in a directory
Specify the default page to show in a directory.
When the location requested does not exist, and this directive is set, Interchange will try to append the specified filename to the URL, and re-test for the page existence.
This directive sets the default page for all directories
except the catalog entry point.
(In other words, this directive won't help you make
http://myhost.mydomain.local/
show
http://myhost.mydomain.local/index.html
-
see the SpecialPage
for that).
Although the name for this directive was borrowed from the Apache Web Server project, it only accepts one filename (unlike Apache which supports multiple filenames to look for in sequential order).
