Sun Java System Web Server - SJSWS 7-virtual server question
I've just created a virtual server "test1" and the default document root is ../docs . Once that's done, i goto test1.xxxxx.edu and i see the Sun Java System Webserver 7 homepage at that address. I wanted to change the document root so that it points to a directory c:\ webprod\webtest . After doing that, when i try to access test1.xxxxx.edu it kept prompting me for a username and password for Sun Java System Webserver. Why is that?

# 1
By default, Web Server 7.0 will not display directory listings to unauthenticated users. If you want to display directory listings to anyone, grant the list access right to anyone in an ACL. Otherwise, add an index file (e.g. index.html) to the directory.

Can you send us relevant ACL files? Can you see default.acl file?
Can you try giving default user "list" rights and see what happens?
1. It is possible that there is an ACL for "read" rights which doesn't allow unauthentciated users "read" access.
2. Your docroot settings are pointing to a different directory than what you think and it doesn't have index.html.
For more info about directory listings and ACLs refer my blogs page http://blogs.sun.com/meena
