   Due to the fact that I'm running several sites parallel at home, I want to have WordPress on port 8008 instead of 80.

   So far this is the result

   http://192.168.1.2:8008/readme.html ->shows OK
   http://192.168.1.2:8008/wp-admin -> shows OK
   http://192.168.1.2:8008 -> Home.html not found

   index.php is in the directory with 777 rights. Index.html or index.html is not in this directory.

   Did I mis any setting in wp-admin ?

   Thanks in advance

   Googled on "pointing DirectoryIndex to index.php by creating .htaccess file"

   Used this information:

   http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/creating/directoryindex.html

   And executed this step:

   Configuring Apache Via .htaccess Files
   You can also configure Apache via a .htaccess file, either in your website's document root (where your home page lives) or in a subfolder (if you only want the changes to apply to that folder). This works on both Linux/Unix and Windows systems.

   It's simple! Just create a text file called .htaccess containing this line:

   DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.php index.shtml index.shtm

   Just drop that file into your website's home directory ("document root").

   -> That did the Job.
