I’m getting a multiple choice page error on several pages. For example, as admin, if I try to filter users I get the error The document name you requested (/forum/index.phpusers) could not be found on this server. However, we found documents with names similar to the one you requested. Available documents: /forum/index.php?status=all&uquery=boe (common basename)

another example: If I go to view a message that was sent to me, the error happens: The document name you requested (/authors/forum/index.phpmessages/conversation/1) could not be found on this server…

I can see that there is supposed to be a / between the .php and the rest of the destination URL, but I don’t know what file to edit to make that happen.

    Hello,

    Why you have index.php in your urls? Did you change config file for that? If yes, please remove it.

    Thank you

    I didn’t change the config file except for the base URL. The config file did have ( $config[‘index_page’] = ‘index.php’; ) and if I removed the index.php, ( $config[‘index_page’] = ’ ‘’; ) the site broke with 404 error messages.

    However, if I did add a trailing /, it fixed the problem. ( $config[‘index_page’] = ‘index.php/’; )

    Thank you.

    To clarify for others reading this: I did not put index.php in the base URL, so that wasn’t the problem. The problem evidently was that the config index_page parameter needed to have a trailing slash.

    Hello,

    The index_page config should be empty. The 404 should be resolved using .htaccess file.

    Thank you
