Error accessing Pages, Archives, or Categories

  • I cannot access Pages, Archives, or Categories links in the right column of my blog. I get this in each case:

    “Directory Listing Denied
    This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.”

    I think I have to change the properties (?) in my server, but I can’t figure out what and how! Thanks so much.

    OK, I found the solution, and it solved the problem! I have the site hosted on a Windows platform, using IIS. So I did this:

    1. Open IIS Manager (start/programs/administrative tools/IIS manager)
    2. Right click on the folder containing the blog files (I called it “blog”) and click Properties.
    3. Go to the Documents Tab.
    4. Make sure ‘Enable default content page’ is checked/enabled and “index.php” is the top default document (I had to add “index.php” and move it to the top.)
    5. Click OK.

    That’s it!
