jschall Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 No big deal, but why does the Apache log fill up with lines like this? [Wed Nov 02 06:36:31 2005] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] File does not exist: W:/www/favicon.ico I will copy an icon file into W:/www just to keep the old Indian happy :angry: - Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Because when using FireFox, it automatically request it? And it is not in there? :angry: Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jschall Posted November 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 I don't use Firefox. :angry: The favicon.ico was not there when I installed Uniform Server, but I put one in, a smiley face, and now Avant Browser displays it when I open the server from my laptop. Is there an "official" favicon.ico for the Uniform Server or Apache? - Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted November 2, 2005 Report Share Posted November 2, 2005 Yeah, it is in 3.3. Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elyk Posted November 3, 2005 Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 Because when using FireFox, it automatically request it? And it is not in there? :angry:1737[/snapback]I thought that all browsers requested the favorite icon. I'm almost certain IE does; at least it displays the icon.

jschall Posted November 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2005 I'm sure you are right, elyk. And you helped me understand what is happening! - Every time I access the remote Uniform Server from my laptop, it requests the favicon from Apache - and if it's not there, Apache logs that as an error! Thanks! - Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 k, people... lets leave the topic closed. Elyk, not all browsers do. IE does not for sure and neither does mine display it even if it is there or coded to the page. I know FF does and some others. Topic Closed.

Ric Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Wow! What piece of history, I very rarely fire up IE I was wondering do you still need to force IE to request a favicon.http://wiki.uniformserver.com/index.php/Ad...ver#favicon.icoWell IE7 in this respect is compliant, yep and will fill the error log with those ico errors. Just make sure you have one in the root folder All the best Ric Oops sorry Olajide Open and Closed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olajideolaolorun Posted July 2, 2008 Report Share Posted July 2, 2008 Yep, finally IE 7 is compliant! lol. Quote Best Regards Olajide Olaolorun The Uniform Server Development Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
