Talk:KB / Web Programming / Error messages

One note on enabling customized error messages. If you have SSH enabled, log onto your account, and move to your domain's root directory, you will not see an ".htaccess" file present. However, even though you can't see it listed using a DIR command, it's there (invisible). Type this command on a shell command line:

pico .htaccess

PICO is a shell text file editor. It will see the invisible file you can't see, open it, and allow you to edit it, add to it, and save it manually.


 * You can also view these hidden "dot" files (files that begin with a "dot") by using the ls -a (or ls -la) command from the shell. For more info, check out the man pages for ls (man ls). - Rlparker 00:17, 19 July 2009 (UTC)
