If Options -Indexes does not work as Bryan Drewery suggested  you could write a recursive method to create blank index php files   Place this inside of your base folder you wish to protect  you can name it whatever  I would recommend index php    lt  php  recurse        function recurse  path       foreach scandir  path  as  o           if  o         amp  amp   o                        full    path          o              if is dir  full                    if  file exists  full     index php                         file put contents  full     index php                                          recurse  full                                      gt    These blank index php files can be easily deleted or overwritten  and they ll keep your directories from being listable

Options -Indexes should work to prevent directory listings   If you are using a  htaccess file make sure you have at least the  allowoverride options  setting in your main apache config file

User · Answer
