strange problem on httpd-2.0.52 on CentOS

Hi,

the problem is very strange and I have never seen it before. I could
not find any solution about this on the net, because I dont even know
how to define it correctly!!!.

the virtualhost's directoryindex has the index.html defined with it.
So, when I browse the ip address via the http:// than I get the page
without any problem. But since the page supposed to run as SSI page, I
had to add these in the .htaccess file:
------------------
Options +ExecCGI +Includes
AddType text/x-server-parsed-html .html
AddOutputFilter INCLUDES .html
----------------------
then when I browse the same ip address, this time it asks me to save
the file ??? The default page is still the index.html file. And the
strange thing is if I browse the page http://ipaddress/index.html I can
see the page without any problem, when I browse it http://ipaddress,
than I the browser asks me to save the file.

Has anyone run into something like this ? What could I be missing or
doing wrong ?


Thanks and best regards.
