SYMPTOMS
If a World Wide Web (WWW) server is setup with multiple virtual servers and also has a Proxy server installed, users on the internal side of the network get one of the following error messages when they try to connect to the web pages on the Proxy server:


 * 500 Server Error. (The system cannot find the path specified.)
 * 404 Object Not Found. (The system cannot find the path specified.)



CAUSE
All of the servers specified in the Directories tab of the WWW Service Properties are virtual servers.



WORKAROUND
Make sure that at least one of the WWW Service Home directories is not a virtual server. You can create a dummy home page if you need to keep all of your current Web Pages virtualized.

To create a dummy home page, add a new virtual directory (click New from the Directories tab) and specify a directory to point to, then click Home but do not select Virtual Server.
