Can't get past the main page of my website...halp!

Factual Questions
1

I figure this will either be something really obvious that someone with a clue will know how to fix or too complex to be sorted on this Board. Hoping it is the former (and I suspect it is) I’ll give it a shot here.

I have a domain what when I go to it displays fine. The domain and website are hosted on a third party provider (and yes I have called them…tech support is iffy and so far no help there).

So, let’s pretend my domain is called www.test.com (it’s not).

A page displays, as it should, no problems.

However, any link on that page that takes me deeper into the site is borked.

So, say I want to go to the “About Us” page I get this:

*Not Found

The requested URL /w/o/test.com/public/wild/index.php was not found on this server.*

The same thing happens for any link that points to an internal web page deeper than the homepage.

Now, I have a directory in the Public folder on the server named “wild” so that is correct (and indeed while testing I removed the “wild” directory and the home page displayed with no formatting so the system is getting something useful from that directory). The “index.php” file is in the “wild” directory too. Don’t know where that “/w/o/” bit is coming from though.

Any ideas?

Normally we have a web guy who does this but he is unavailable and it can’t wait so taking a stab at it.

Thanks in advance!

(FWIW this site is not in production so I have not screwed anything up…just trying to get it to work in the first place.)

Can you cut and paste your entire home page HTML?
It might just be a path problem referencing your error message.

Let me get this straight:
at
www.example.com/index.html
there is a link that goes to
www.example.com/wild/about.html
but when you click on that link you get an error message saying “requested URL was not found”.

What happens if you type in www.example.com/wild/about.html in the URL field of your browser? Does the page show correctly?

What application does wild/index.php belong to?

Also, there is presumably an index.php in your /w/o/test.com/public directory. What application does that belong to?

It’s probably misconfigured. Or hasn’t yet been configured, and is making an incorrect guess about the layout of your web site.

I can’t see the code (obviously), but it seems that something in the php file should probably be expanding the “/w/o” into a full url header related to your site. It also looks wrong pre-pending the linky url, but that could be if it is redirecting to a subdomain.

6

What CMS or other system do you use for generating your site? (it seems you do not hand-code the HTML files or you’d just change the link URL to the correct one).

Could it be a misconfigured .htaccess redirect?
