I want to freeze a forum and make the content available for reading.

I saved the content with WinHTTrack and with the action: "get separated
files".

I saved the data under a supdirectoy on the provider's server.
There are now:
index.html
www.example.com


I have set a link to this subdirectory. If www.example.com is now called up,
the data of the frozen directory should actually appear in the browser. That
doesn't work yet.

If I do
www.beispiel.de/index.html calls the call works, I get the frozen content.

Troubleshooting
I have a .htaccess in the subdirectory that the link points to
With
DirectoryIndex index.html
That doesn't work yet.
