File not found error on testing server [subject edited by moderator]

The requested URL /www/first.php was not found on this server.  Apache/2.4.9 (Win64) PHP/5.5.12 Server at localhost Port 80
Using adobe dreamweaver with wamp server and getting this message while checking any file.Saved all file in ( c:wamp/www/ ) with php extention

Have you checked to see if first.php file is in the www folder in WAMP?
Have you aso tried:
http://localhost/first.php
or
Create a folder in the 'www' folder named 'test' and then put the 'first.php' file in the 'test' folder:
http://localhost/test/first.php
Do any of those combinations work?

  • Getting 'File not found' error while using server object model code

    Hi,
    I am using server object model code to pull list data in a console application. My machine has standalone installation of SP 2010. I am getting error 'File Not Found', however the same operation is working fine with client object model code.
    Code I am using:
    string strURL=http://servername/sites/sitename;
    SPSite siteObj=new SPSite (strURL); //getting error here.
    I have already checked the below,
    1. Framework being used is 3.5.
    2. I have proper access to site.
    3. Running visual studio as admin.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    thanks
    Tarique
    thanks and regards Tarique Aslam

    Hello Tarique ,
    Couple of pints need to check:
    1. User running the console application needs to have at least read permission to the SharePoint databases
    2. Set application by changing the "Platform target:" option on the "Build" to "Any CPU"
    Also refer this similar thread:

  • File Not Found error in Citrix Server

    I have a client who is running an application through Citrix that uses Crystal Reports, and the application is erroring out when trying to load a report, ONLY when the user does not have anything mapped as their C:\ drive.
    The default setup at this client was to have a P: drive as the main drive, and a Q: data drive for the users when they log into the Citrix box.
    When the users were tried to launch the application with this setup, they got the following error:
    System.Exception: Load report failed. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): The system cannot find the path specified.
    System.Exception: Load report failed. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): The system cannot find the path specified.

       at CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportClass.Load()
    If we have a drive mapped to C:\ for the user, the issue goes away.  I've looked through the Crystal Reports engine code, and with an embedded report in a .NET application (as is the case here) Crystal Reports writes the embedded report out to the temp directory before reading it back in again.  The failure seems to be either with reading or writing that temporary file.
    Anyone run into this before, or seen a solution?

    Hi, Craig;
    It sounds like you are running into this issue: [CitrixDrive|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313337333933383338%7D.do]

  • Quicktime would fail to write/export to server windows share with "Error -43: file not found" errors

    Summary:
    With the combination of Windows 7 and Quicktime 7.x, Quicktime would fail to write/export to server windows share with "Couldn't create output movie storage" and "Error -43: file not found" errors
    Steps to Reproduce:
    Trying to render to Quicktime files using network shared folders as a destination:
    Unable to open file. (-1610153459)
    The funny thing: it only happens when there are at least two shared folders mapped on the workstation, and the destination folder used for the rendered movie is not the first one.
    If we have only two mapped drives, F: and G: for example, and we try to render something to F:, everything works fine and no error is showed. But, when the destination is the G: drive, rendering never works, the error is showed, but a zero-byte file is created in F: (!!). ODD! If we remap F: drive with a different letter, but a letter BEFORE G:, the problem always happens. If we remap drive F: to any letter AFTER G:, making G: the first available network drive, rendering works. Also, simply unmapping F: and leaving G: as the only connected network folder makes render to work.
    We do not have a D: drive in our Windows 7 workstations, they are all C: only.
    It is a 100% reproducible problem. We tried with three different Active Directory networks and workstations. It has all of the features of a software bug.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers!
    Expected Results:
    Error -43: file not found
    Actual Results:
    The workaround seems to be to use the full path to the servers instead of the mapped mount point (ie //server/z/... instead of Z:/...
    Regression:
    All versions of quicktime 7 in combination with windows 7 client and more than one smb share point mapped in a letter.
    Notes:
    All software that uses quicktime movie exports showed this error.

    Not sure what file your are referencing?  Thanks for your suggestion, however, it's not relavant.
    It renders fine if you render to either the UNC path or the first mapped drive.
    i.e. If you have two mapped drives G: and H:
    they both point to \\fileserver\share1\folder
    If you render to H: it will fail, if you render to G: it works!  Same path, same user, same permissions.
    The only difference is H comes after G, so it fails... BUG.  If it was to do with anything else, underscores, permissions etc, it would fail on both.

  • File Not Found Error on Fresh MX7 Installation

    After spending days getting CFMX 7.0.2 installed on a CentOS5.3 (production) server running Apache 2.2.3 and WHM/cPanel 11, by religiously following Bill Mitchell's lifesaving guide, CF is up and running but I cannot access the administrator or anything else in user public_html directories.
    If I place a simple foo bar test file in the /usr/local/apache/htdocs/testfile.cfm directory, I can call it at http://[IPaddress]/testfile.cfm and it parses properly.
    However, if I place the same file at /home/cfusion/public_html/testfile.cfm and call it at http://[IPaddress]/~cfusion/testfile.cfm, I get a CF-generated 404 "File Not Found" error.
    cfusion is a cPanel account I created via WHM prior to installing ColdFusion as a repository for my CFIDE directory.
    If I place a symlink for /usr/local/apache/htdocs/CFIDE -> /home/cfusion/public_html/CFIDE:"File Not Found". If I cp -R my CFIDE into htdocs: "File Not Found." These files are physically there. I can easily verify that of course. But CF is still saying File Not Found. In fact, if I disconnect Apache - JRun, Apache finds the files all by itself no problem. They are definitely there.
    I thought this might be a permissions issue, but all my .cfm files are nobody:root 775.
    Here's what I'm seeing in the exception.log:

    I guess maybe I need to know where the config for webroots is set from the CF/JRun perspective? I'm a decent hand with web server admin stuff, but despite being a CF dev for 10 years, CF admin stuff is still a bit over my head. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm at my wit's end!

    Thanks Mack. I set verbose to true in my httpd.conf, restarted Apache, restarted CF, but I can't see any difference in the logging. Errors seem the same, and no additional info.
    The Apache error_log file is filled with cryptic stuff that looks like it's referencing JRun. Does any of this mean anything to you? Is there another log file I should be looking at?

  • Apache plug-in prob : when trying to access '/weblogic/' URL , "404 : file not found" error is shown

    On : Apache 2.0 , Weblogic 7.0, Win 2000
    I installed the Apache plug-in for as described in WL docs, but when I try to
    access a URL /weblogic/ ( supposed to be configured automatically ) on apache,
    I get '404 : file not found' error.
    As per the docs, I did following config in Apache:
    1. Copied the 'mod_wl_20.so' file found in WLHOME\server\bin directory to the
    APACHE_HOME\modules directory
    2. Added to httpd.conf :
    LoadModule weblogic_module modules/mod_wl_20.so
    3. Apache httpd.conf syntax correct : checked by running ' APACHE_HOME\bin\Apache
    -t '
    4. Restarted WL & Apache.
    Now, the weblogic documentation says,
    "Test the Apache plug-in by opening a browser and setting the URL to the Apache
    Server + "/weblogic/", which should bring up the default WebLogic Server HTML
    page, welcome file, or default servlet, as defined for the default Web Application

    For my server, 'http://localhost/weblogic/' - I get a "404 : file not found" error.
    What other configuration is needed ? Do I have to specify '/weblogic/' name anywhere
    else in Apache configuration file ?
    Any pointers will be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Forgot to mention , I've also added following configuration in httpd.conf :
    LoadModule weblogic_module modules\mod_wl_20.so
    <IfModule mod_weblogic.c>
    WebLogicHost localhost
    WebLogicPort 7501

  • When I call VI on Linux from Teststand on Windows using TCP/IP I get "file not found error".any sugeestions?

    I am trying to execute a VI running on Linux from Teststand running on windows 2000 prof ,both running on two different machines.I used TCP/IP for the interface using the following steps on Labview VI:tools>options>VIserver>TCP/IP and gave the ip address of both the machines.When I gave the file path as c:\home\test.vi in Edit labview Vi call window(the Vi in linux is stored in /home/test.vi)and also in remote vi path:/home/test.vi,I get a file not found error.The teststand version is 3.0 and labview is 7.0.Any idea why this is happening and any solutions?

    priya guru,
    Here is a knowledge base that addresses your question: �How do I call test VIs that reside on a non-Windows platform from TestStand?�
    You also need to set TCP/IP Access found in Tools->Options->'VI Server: TCP/IP Access'. Make sure that you list the IP address in the Access List to allow TCP/IP access to that machine. Finally you need to specify which VIs are accessible to remote applications. Open up Tools->Options->'VI Server: Exported VIs' and provide paths to the VIs you wish to be remotely accessible.
    I have attached an example VI that demonstrates VI Server in action. Please post back if you are still having problems. Good luck!

  • File not found error when tried to open Document ID settings page

    Hi
    when i open sitesettings>site collection administratin >Document
    ID settings
    it shows
    file not found error
    adil

    Hi,
    first we need to figure out the error. change the web.config so that you can see the error on browser
    1) Obtain the complete call stack instead of the default error page:
    <SafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="false"/>
    to
    <SChangeafeMode MaxControls="200" CallStack="true"/>
    2) CustomeErrors mode value (in the system.web section) is set to Off:
    <customErrors mode="On">
    to
    <customErrors mode="Off">
    Change these value in "c:\inetpub\wssroot"  CA dirctory web.config and
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\web.config .
    now again try to do the action. you will get the error on screen.

  • File not found error when opening securedoc.html

    We are having a sudden issue where recipients of our secure envelope emails will open a message from us with attachments and they will get a "File Not Found" error message.
    We are still using a Post X appliance, but no config changes were made whatsoever and this started happening since last weekend. (Oct. 9-11)
    I did reboot the Post X box and thought the problem was fixed w/ the reboot. I sent a secure message to myself and then opened it along with the attachment and all was good. I sent the second test and the problem was back; "File not found".
    I have noticed that when I get file not found the address bar in my browser is pointing to: https://res.cisco.com/websafe/eo/error?error=notfound
    The time after rebooting when it did work it pointed to file on my local computer hard drive:
    file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/mymachine/Local%20Settings/Temporary%20Internet%20Files/PXTemp/-6pAQ4_Y5hJEmKdQhtG8lhNx0zo!/PX_L_1255377132267.html
    Any ideas what could have caused this sudden issue? How do we resolve? I have a call into support, but they have been researching it all day and our secure mail is down!

    used bridge, didn't work.
    tried right-click, double click..open in program.
    same error.
    files work in other adobe products.....
    only way to get a jpg in there is to "paste" it in.

  • File not found error (no error number or file identified)

    Hi,
    I am getting a file not found error when trying to render a project. The message box does not identify which file is not found nor is there an error message number. I by trial and error tracked the file to a video connected to the PAL_Projector Menu. It is the PAL_Projector.m2v file. I reconnected it but it still gives a file not found error on render. Any suggestions and why do we get these ridiculous error messages in this day and age. The message should identify the file and how to fix the problem.

  • File Not Found Error running JSP demos

    I'm not sure what is going on, but it appears that every time I try to run a jsp, the server looks in the document root where it errors out with a file not found error. I've seen others with this type of problem but I haven't seen a solution. Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks.

    1: Double check the port number that your Tomcat Server is using. (TOMCAT_HOME/conf/server.xml).
    2: check you IP. This is not the 'localhost' IP (not sure if it is LAN or real IP). So it may change dynamically.
    3: Check for Firewalls. Also, since you are not using localhost, you will have to make sure you traverse all the firewalls built around your system. If you have a router (home), windows XP, or some other firewall, make sure the appropriate ports are opened. If you are behind a corporate firewall, or your ISP closes ports... your kinda out of luck until you find a way to cheat around them.
    2: Try just using just "/ValidateUser.jsp" as long as it is one the same domain as the Form. This will make it less likely to break, should your IP change.

  • File not found error on some computers running the same program

    I have created a program which:
    opens a file
    reads the records and massages the records
    writes the records to a new file
    Launches a program that uses the resultant file.
    The program was written on Windows xp MCE using Visual Studio 10. The resulting program works fine.
    I places The executable and the input file onto a flashdrive, and then tested it on other machines.
    Two of the machines are both Win 7 Pro 64bit with .Net 4. On one machine it works great. On the other I get a "File not found" error when starting the second process. This is the failing code:
    The problem is with the Shell command. When I rewrite it as:
    it works on both machines
    So my question is: Why does exactly the same code (The same flashdrive was used on both machines) work on one machine and not the other (when both machenes appear to be at the same level)?
    In both cases I verify the file exists in the correct place before I try to start it.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    The use of F is just an example. I use:
    OutputPath = My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath 'Where app is run from (root)
        'Make sure the path ends in \
        If VB.Right(OutputPath, 1) <> "\" Then
          OutputPath = OutputPath & "\"
        End If
    to get the correct information.
    Then
      PTRName = OutputPath & "myprogram.exe"
    BTW "myprogram.exe" is not the correct name it is just an example.
    Sorry if this caused confusion
    However all of this is not the point. If:
     My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(PTRName)
    is true then the file is in the right place. Therefore:
    Retval = Shell(PTRName,4)
    must also work. However it does not on some machines.
    Is the problem in .Net, VB or VS because it is not in my code. 
    I have also used a routine similar to you (in VB6) to find a particular volume, but used the volume label. That worked better in my case.
