With the filebrowser extensions, I am trying to embed a view of a directory in a page and be able to open files from this page. The path for the file returns a "page not found" error. The path is http://www.mysite.edu/~me/?q=files/notes/eng101/eng101_week1.htm.

Clean URL's are not enabled and this is on a fresh install of Drupal 4.7.3 with mySQL 4.0 and a few contributed modules: category, userlink, quotes, image, excerpt, feedback and htmlarea. Any clues? Everything else Drupal seems to be functioning fine (other paths, etc).

May be to do with the clean urls being assumed.
I've been looking at getting it to support the case where files are stored out of and above the normal directory root, but haven't tested no-clean-urls much at all.

Yes. I can confirm that this problem goes away once clean URL's are enabled. It would be nice if it worked both ways, in case someone cannot get their host to change setting for Apache (I was able to get the clean URL's working, thankfully).

This week I worked a lot on re-writing this thing. I've now broken it totally free from the orginal filebrowser - it seemed that where I was taking it (including multiple browse roots and permissions) just wouldn't fit with the original without changing it beyond recognition.

So I'll be committing a brand new version soon. Just gotta do some testing, the autocomplete, and some security review.

Oh, my new one will support unclean urls and private fileserving also. This has tested out mostly OK.

Unclean URLs and private file serving should now be supported in the CVS version
