File Upload problem.

i receive an Internal server error when I try to view an uploaded assignment file from within Moodle. The returned URl is
http://vigliotti.org/moodle/file.php/2/assignment/1/5/ME154.pdf

I don't think that the file.php should be in the URL. There seems to be a path problem.

This is really a wonderful program.

That's how the path should look (it's to help caches and proxies), although I use a more conventional path on Windows servers because of errors like you describe. Is your server on Windows? Perhaps the Windows detection isn't working (all I do is check for the existence of a $WINDIR environment variable).

The server is not a Windows box it is a Linux box through a hosting company.

Hmm, OK, I'll add a new configuration option to make this behaviour more controllable. It'll be in CVS later today and in Moodle 1.0.1 which might be tomorrow.

Me too.  I am working through AlterHosting.com and they installed Moodle on the server for me and it is connected to my website.  I upload the pictures and files, but I can't see them in the pages.  I checked and they are on the server.  For some reason the program is picking them up.  HELP!

I love MOODLE.

Same problem I'm having. Moodle worked fine when I had it on my computer. Now I am with a hosting company and they installed Moodle and it was successful except for a few problems such as: Logo on front page does not display for my modified theme, whilw the small logo is OK on signin page etc. I tried uploading web pages as a resource for main menu announcements and nothing works just get a message:

"The requested URL //public_html/files/moodle features for students info.htm was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request. "

Don't make the answer too complicated please.
