Pictures from the icons directory are not displayed

Post by Wib3434 » Mon Aug 19, 2019 12:52 pm

Hello,

I'm about to set up the meteotemplate, but I have the following problem, no file from the /icons folder are displayed
for example /icons/menuDark.png

Files from all other directories are displayed correctly, e.g. /admin/adminIcons/mainSetup.png

Now I have created a ticket with my provider and received the following reply:
"Icons" is a default folder of the Apache web server and therefore can not be used!

What options do I have now?
Can the folder be renamed? Is there a setting (a variable in the php scripts) where this folder is defined?

Thanks for the support
Martin

Sounds like your hosting is a linux based one
Check the Wiki at http://www.meteotemplate.com/web/wiki/wiki3GB.php and click on the red link to

NOTE FOR LINUX APACHE SERVERS!!!

It describes your problem exactly and how to fix it!

Thank you very much for the quick response, now the page works correctly.
I searched the wiki and the forum, unfortunately I did not see the note ;-)

Thanks Martin
