    <p>Apache access log only indicates "404."</p>
    <p>Nothing in the Apache error log for today.</p>
    <p>It's probably one of those mysteries I have to live with.</p>
    <p>Thanks anyway.<br>

                    <p>Some of the files in my /var/www/html directory
                      behave funny. Many open fine in response to
                      localhost/file.html or to

                      eg, a WP site on my computer.</p>
                    <p>But some of the individual files behave
                      strangely. When I try to open them I get a 404,
                      "Requested URL was not found on this server." <br>

                    <p>I can't tell any difference between those that
                      open and those that don't. To further confuse me,
                      when I click on the file in the file browser, they
                      open nicely in Firefox--as <a
                        moz-do-not-send="true">file:///var/www/html/file.html</a>.
                      After that happens some then open nicely in
                      response to localhost/file.html.</p>
                    <p>Many of the file have traveled from an old Fedora
                      box to the webserver on a Macbook Pro to this new
                      box. But that history doesn't seem to correlate
                      with the different behaviors.<br>

                    <p>Any insight into what's going on here?<br>
