erro level in apache config is set to Notice.
The below error keep popping up.

Code:
[Thu Jul 10 10:18:56 2008] [error] [client myipaddress] File does not exist: /path to/ffffff, referer: http://www.mywebsite.com/index.php
[Thu Jul 10 10:18:56 2008] [error] [client myipaddress] File does not exist: /path to/error, referer: http://www.mywebsite.com/index.php


I am neither accessing ffffff or error just visiting mywebsite.com . when the above errors occur.
These file donot exist on the server.

My server setting are freebsd5.4 apache2.0 php5 , mod rewrite is enable in apache.

any ideas why i am getting this error. As i have had a detailed look at the index.php file and all files it requires and nowhere in the php script is it calling for file ffffff or error.

thanks in advance for the help.[/quote]

Just a theory ...

Being as ffffff is the RGB code for the color "white" in html, I'd first look and see if I have something slipping out of an html tag, Easy way to check is view source of the output in Firefox, everything from any break in the html and it will show red from that point through the rest of the output source.


as far as /error .. sure you do not have any global ErrorDocument directives pointing to a non-global path?

That is exactly what I was doing and did not find any tags missing.
But than after your post I took a closer look .............. I was using the code below
Code:

<td height="100%" background="ffffff">

Realised I had to change it to the below
Code:

<td height="100%" background="#ffffff">


I had forgotten to add the '#' without the quotes infront of ffffff.


But i am still nowhere with
File does not exist: /pathto/error
most files accessed on the site seems to generate that error.
I did have a line with custom error 403 file in the .htaccess file but deleting it does not make it go away.

Also my .htaccess file blocks alot of unwanted ipaddresses. Even the ipaddresses blocked by .htacces file try to access the /pathto/error

wonder if the .htaccess file is doing something. I have throughly checked it and there are no urls or custom error document referrals.
any other thoughts
thanks for your help
