[cobalt-users] [RAQ4r] strange index page problem (maybe apache rather than RAQ?)

["Andrew Witham" <awitham@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We are hosting a site for a large financial organization who want to link
from their site to another portal page.

Their site works fine - their home page is at
http://www.ourclient.com/index.html.

The have created a new folder /portal, in which they have placed two files,
index.html and server.htm.  Index.htm is basically a frame which contains
server.htm, which in turn calls the portal page from another server.

When anyone goes to http://www.ourclient.com/portal the intention was that
index.html would open, containing the portal page from the other server
within the frame.  It doesn't - we get 404 file not found for index.html.
If we call http://www.ourclient.com/portal/index.html we get the same, but
if we call http://www.ourclient.com/portal/server.htm we get the portal
page, but without the frame that keeps the original site integrity.  (We
also tried index.htm, but that doesn't work)

The portal developer has no problem with this site design working in other
places, and it it believed that includes other servers running Apache.  Any
input as to where to go from here from the list guru's would be much
appreciated.

If anyone takes up the challenge, I can provide 'off-line' the real domain
to replace 'ourclient'.

Thanks
