<p>It's not permissions. Nearly all are 777 for some reason and the
inconsistent behavior also happens with the few that are 553 or
533.</p>
<p>It's not ownership. All are owned by "Me."</p>
<p>Web-server is clearly listening on localhost. Is there any reason
it would have to listen on 127.0.0.1 for just certain files (which
are coded exactly like the others)? How would subnet restrictions
or re-writes affect some of the files in /var/www/html but not
others?</p>
<p>In any case, why would opening them from the file directory then
make it possible to open from the webbrowser?<br>

<p>I've got a new computer with Ubuntu 20.04. <br>
</p>
<p>Some of the files in my /var/www/html directory behave
funny. Many open fine in response to localhost/file.html
or to localhost/ericbeversluis, where ericbeversluis is,
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>
<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>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>
<p>Any insight into what's going on here?<br>
