Forums / Setup & design / IndexPage set, no change

During my quest to understand Exponential, the docs revealed another very nice feature, the IndexPage setting in site.ini. So I followed the docs and set it to the node ID of an article, but there is absolutely no change. I can view the article just fine using .../view/full/ID, but the browser still shows me the demo block as index page. (all caches were flushed, more than once)
This is on Exponential 4.3 with ezflow, but without demo content.

Are you 100% sure the setting has been declared correctly ? With all the overrides it's easy to misplace it... check with setup / INI settings for your siteaccess, this will show you the final value.

The corresponding line says
<table class="list" border="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td width="50%">IndexPage</td><td width="1">siteaccess</td><td width="50%">"/content/view/full/75"</td></tr></tbody></table>
At least it looks like the docs said - or is something wrong with it? I also set DefaultPage to the same node after IndexPage did not yield any change, but still the same...

Sorry for that, I had hoped this would be a way to display INI settings... Here is the line again, without fancy formatting:

Got it. I compared to a second installation _with_ demo content and found that there was a trailing slash that was omitted in the docs (EZP 4.0 tech manual p1698). Without that slash, nothing happens. Naughty doc bug...
