Also notice that our servers are case sensitive, if you put `picture` inside `htdocs` then you cannot use `Picture` in the url. And you should never put `htdocs` in the url. For further information please see > [@Redirected to InfinityFree 404 error page](https://forum.infinityfree.com/t/redirected-to-infinityfree-404-error-page/49355): > > While working on your website, you may be redirected to the [InfinityFree 404 error page](https://infinityfree.net/errors/404/). This article explains why this typically happens and what you can do to fix this. Why do I get a 404 error When you try to access a file on a website, the server tries to find the matching file to load. By default, it works like this. Suppose you have a website [http://example.com](http://example.com) which is linked to the folder htdocs in your hosting account.

There are multiple ways to do that. Let’s compare some commonly used ways. Using script configuration Some scripts (including Wordpress) have a setting which allows you to set your website URL.
