I need some help for referencing the image present in the Ubuntu server. My image path in Ubuntu server "/home/Ubuntu/Chat/public/images/directions-icon.jpg". When i try to open the saved html its not displaying any thing. I thing its referencing my Laptop path. How to excursively mention a Ubuntu Path over here. Please Help Me. Thank you all.
My Code:
<html>
<img src="/home/Ubuntu/Chat-BOT/public/images/directions-icon.jpg">
</html>
Error: Not Displaying any thing
Just check the following things for diplaying the image
Ubuntu is a linux based operating system and its paths are case sensitive make sure you give exact path
Secondly their might be a permission issue for accessing the directory. You must atleast have read permission to show the image. Run "sudo chmod" command to change the permission of your desired directory.
Thirdly, make sure that the path you are giving is in the www or public web directory of your web server. Because if you are running your pages as a localhost the relative paths mostly starts from the folder within www or web directory example if file is in
/www/images/image.png
The relative path will be
src="/images/image.png"
Which means path according to local web address is
http://localhost/images/image.png
Thanks.
Perhaps you should start by checking you path again
/home/Ubuntu/Chat/public/images/directions-icon.jpg
and
/home/Ubuntu/Chat-BOT/public/images/directions-icon.jpg
are not exactly the same.
You seem to be referencing Chat-Bot while you probably meant to reference Chat (or probably vice-versa)

I hope that I will not waste everyone's time, nor embarrass myself, but please hear/read my problem. I am new to this, so please bear with me.
Someone at work wrote a crude code in Node.js and I can see the .html files by having localhost: 8080 as the URL in the browser, while having the VisualStudio starting the npm with npm start command. Am I explaining this clear enough?
The webpages are displayed and all, but now comes the hurdle.
How can i have those pages served from a a Linux server?
If by analogy, I put some.html page inside the /var/www/ in a Apache server, pointing to the server's IP/somepage.html i can visualise it, what needs to be set up on a similar Node.js server?
Where do I have to put those files, inside what directory and what configuration is needed?
I thought to create a small LXC container and have those files and services saved as a template, but first I need to set this up correctly. Can Apache serve those files, do I have to make another configuration first?
I have those files served from a Windows machine from local host, and put the same files in a /node ,/opt/ www directory in a Linux machine, but no dice.
I am trying to set up a webserver running on Ubuntu. I have installed Apache and changed the root directory to an other directory within /var/www/. When I copy the index.html provided by Apache to that directory, I can access that file via remote webbrowser. But if I want to use a different index.html file, even really basic ones, I get an error: "Forbidden You don't have permission to access this resource". I have also tried to download that html, alter just a few lines and put it back on to the server with the result that it also shows that error. If I rename the initially provided index.html to index2.html I can still access it. I do not understand how it is possible that only this exact file is working.
I have tried to grant more permissions with Directory and restarted Apache but it won't work. I am rather new to Linux and Apache, can only use the terminal on my webserver and I do not know what else to do. Please help.
Change the permissions on the file, too, not just the folder. Pretty sure this fix it.
For diagnostic correction, allow permission for all by typing:
sudo chmod -R 777 /path/to/index.html
I am newly(about 1 month) started using LAMP and Bootstrap.
I developed a web-site that worked perfectly until I reinstalled LAMP.
Here my progress:
0. reinstalled LAMP
1. moved my "backup-ed" file to my "localhost" direction
2. I run "chmod 777 *" to each dir and file
3. When I write "localhost" to my browser(firefox) the "index.html" is running
4. When I click the link(say: index)
The browser responds:
http://localhost/undefined
Not Found
The requested URL /undefined was not found on this server.
Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at localhost Port 80
Is there any way to fix this, by the way it's working(linking) perfectly when I write file:///var/www/html/index.html.
The reason why I want to use LAMP is add .php files to handle form.
Thanks
What happens when you do hit http://localhost ?
What exactly do you see?? Tried http://localhost/html
What is exactly your document root as per apache conf?
You might need to check that you are placing your files in the root directoy. It should be in the "htdocs" foler.
/opt/lampp/htdocs/
If all else fails, you can try using xampp which is another free alternative to lamp.
I get this a lot, when your browser looks for a file that is not in htaccess you get a forbidden or unfound error. The way to fix this is to make sure the link you click goes to an accessible URL. Try finding if other links in the page or scripts are overwriting your link.
Finally check if you can access it from another browser, or try to demonstrate the security of your machine. From a public library you can request an Ubuntu CD from canonical, and while you're waiting, you can visually inspect your machine for tampering.
I am on Kali linux which comes with the apache2 http installed. Under /var/www/ there is a index.html file which is the default index page that will show up on localhost. I have this folder containing all my .html .css .js and some pictures that I want to put on the Apache2 server. Should I just copy/paste the folder under /var/www ?
Thats the traditional way to do it.
if you have virtualhosts or something a bit more complex then you might consider something else but typically people just drop everything in under /var/www (or the equivalent for a given disto or OS )
Yes, though you may need to adjust the accsess rights, and if you want you can use the apache config, or mount --bind, or git clone/pull. Start with the simple option then look into the other options to see if they offer you any benefit.
I have been put in charge of an Ubuntu 13 server installation. Apache is configured to use /var/www as the default directory which is correct. The issue is that it seems there is a fallback directory configured that points to /usr/share. So if I type into a browser (www.address.com) it will serve the documents out of /var/www, but if I know the name of a directory in /usr/share and type in (www.address.com/sharedir) then it will serve out of the /usr/share directory. I have looked in the apache config file and default site config file and do not see this association. I do not want this behavior and am concerned that this is the default behavior out of the box.
Can anyone guide me to another areas where this behavior may be controlled/managed.
Thanks for any assistance.
Open your
/etc/apache2/sites-available/default
file and replace
/var/www
to
/path/to/folder/you/wish
save and it will be better to restart apache by
service apache2 restart
Now put website contents to the new location /path/to/folder/you/wish.
Once you changed the Document root of the of the site as mentioned above, Then no files will be fetched from any other location. Hopes this will help you. :)
[SOLVED] After a bunch more digging around I discovered that the user that originally set up this server erroneously put .conf files in the 'conf.d' directory and 'mods-enabled' directory that were routing traffic to the other directories. Sorry to anyone that noodled on this one.
