It's an Apache configuration thing. The file is probably 
/etc/apache/httpd.conf. If you have a look at the <Directory> directive, 
whether or not you have a trailing backslash controls the behaviour you 
are seeing.

So <Directory /var/www/myweb>

is treated differently to

<Directory /var/www/myweb/>

I don't have the Apache docs to hand, so I'm afraid I can't be mor e 
helpful:)
