Index file missing

Hi,

I have Ninja Invoice installed in sub-domain which was working perfectly. Today I tried to use Cloudlflare on TLD & sub-domain (Ninja Invoice installation) but sub-domain didn’t work. So I reverted to my host. Now, my Ninja Invoice is returning 404 error. I tried to sort out with my host technicals but they said that ‘index’ file is missing from sub-domain which is true as I don’t see one there. I would appreciate if any of you could help me to restore my installation as I don’t want to reinstall for third time.

Thank you in advance.

Are you sure a file is missing? I’d suggest comparing your files against our codebase.

If you’re seeing a 404 it’s most likely an issue with the web server configuration.

Hi,

Thank you for reply. I compared files on my server folder against codebase and can’t see any missing file. However, I’ve pasted here the error log for your reference. If you could help me further.

Sorry, I’m not sure.

It seems your config is set to /home/public_html/invoice/, is this correct?
I recommend using this guide: https://websiteforstudents.com/install-invoiceninja-on-ubuntu-16-04-lts-with-apache2-mariadb-and-php-7-1-support/
I have done a clean install, and used this guide to set it all up and it worked perfectly

Thank you all.

Well, the issue was entirely with .htaccess file which I restored from backup. The cause was redirect line ‘RedirectMatch 301 ^’ - missing from .htaccess file. But I’m wondering why and how the line was eliminated from file.
