    Default PDF file hitting 404 error

    All,

    I am having an issue getting a pdf file to populate in an html ahref call. Here is what I know.

    1. The file itself is set to be able to be viewed, copied.
    2. It is located in the images folder created by the Zencart install.
    3. Zen Cart 1.3.9h
    4. I have set the server file permissions to 777 for the directory and the file.
    5. I ftp'ed the file to the server.
    6. PHP max upload is 2M (wondering if this is the issue)
    7. the file is 2.3 M in size.
    8. I have created a folder on my website server, and ftp'ed the file there to make it work with an html ahref code. works fine. Just trying to figure out what coding is in the software that might prevent the file from displaying, even with a direct URL imput to any browser.

    Thanks for any help, Ray Province

    Default Re: PDF file hitting 404 error

    Not sure I understand the difference between the problem and #8. Do you mean you can't get to the pdf if it's in a Zencart image folder and can if it's in a non-Zencart folder ?

    404 is pretty specific - no such file there. What exact path are you using in the href ?
