How to get apache to add trailing slash to a typed address..

[Advocate]

Let's say I have a site called http://www.deviantpc.com (I do actually )
and I have forums located at http://www.deviantpc.com/forums/

If someone types http://www.deviantpc.com/forums and misses off the trailing slash how do I get apache to add it back in?

Have you enabled the mod_dir module?

The line

LoadModule dir_module libexec/apache/mod_dir.so

is present in my httpd.conf file, is that the one?

Actually if you try entering http://www.deviantpc.com/forums into IE then you get the msn search page coming up....very strange

I think you've got a strange ServerName or something, because I get a 301 to http://1aa.34sp.com/forums/ when I request http://www.deviantpc.com/forums, and that hostname doesn't resolve for me:

Thanks for you help mate...turned out ServerName wasn't even set!! DOH!

My personal favorite solution: mod_rewrite. There's even a section about this in the docs.
