    Problems Viewing Your Pages or Images


    If you are getting an error that you are Forbidden to access your homepage, you may need to change the permissions of your files or directories. At the lennon% or zimmer% prompt, type the following commands:
    • chmod 711 ~ (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    • chmod 711 ~/public_html (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    • chmod 644 ~/public_html/* (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)

    If you are getting an error that your homepage contains no data, you may need to change the name of your homepage. At the lennon% or zimmer% prompt, type the following command:
    • cd ~/public_html (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    • ls -al (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    Look in the right column for the filename default.html. If your homepage is not named default.html, note the name of your homepage and type the following command:
    • mv OLDHOMEPAGENAME default.html (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    where OLDHOMEPAGENAME is the name of your current homepage.
    If an image on your homepage is not being displayed properly, you may need to change the name of the image file OR edit your page to direct the web browser to the correct filename.

    Changing the name of the image file.

    1. View your page.
    2. In Netscape, pull down the View menu and select Document Source.
    3. Find the link to the broken image in the document source. Note the name of the image file.
      Please note: The UNIX system is case sensitive so be sure that you note the EXACT filename, including upper and lowercase letters.
    4. At the lennon% or zimmer% prompt, type the following commands:
      • cd ~/public_html (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
      • ls -al (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    5. Look in the right column for the image filename. If there is a difference between the two filenames, you need to change the name of the image file. At the lennon% or zimmer% prompt, type the following command:
      • mv OLDIMAGEFILENAME NEWIMAGEFILENAME (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
      where OLDIMAGEFILENAME is the current name and NEWIMAGEFILENAME is the correct filename from the document source.
    Editing your document source: Changing the name of the image file.
    1. At the lennon% or zimmer% prompt, type the following commands:
      • cd ~/public_html (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
      • ls -al (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    2. Look in the right column for your homepage filename. This should be default.html. At the lennon% or zimmer% prompt, type the following command:
      • pico HOMEPAGEFILENAME (and press <ENTER>/<RETURN>)
    3. Using your arrow keys, move your cursor to the image link.
    4. Correct the image filename.
    5. Hold the <CONTROL> key and press the <X> to exit the editor.
    6. Press <Y> to confirm saving changes.
    7. Press <ENTER>/<RETURN> to accept the filename.
