Daniel Farray	Wednesday 28 November 2007 8:41:31 pm Can someone point me in the right direction? I placed a file in the following path: /var/mysite/storage/images/an_photo_large.jpg and I can access directly in the browser but if a place a flash file like: /var/mysite/storage/images/an_photo_large.swf I get a forbidden error. I get the same error if I place the file in the design folder. I need to reuse the flash file to use it in a header. Thank you

Check out http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_10/installation/virtual_host_setup Or if you have an 'old style entry' like this: RewriteRule !\.(js\|gif\|css\|jpg\|png\|ico) /var/mysite/index.php add swf to the line.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

I placed a file in the following path:

/var/mysite/storage/images/an_photo_large.jpg

and I can access directly in the browser but if a place a flash file like:

/var/mysite/storage/images/an_photo_large.swf

I get a forbidden error. I get the same error if I place the file in the design folder. I need to reuse the flash file to use it in a header.

Thank you
