I am not getting you completely...

But, check whether you have uploaded your files to public_html directory and all the files are given proper permissions.

Home page should be index.html / index.php

All the best

The path for your public_html directory is

/home/<yourusername>/public_html

Buddy simply
1.login to Your Cpanel wid your user id and password...
2. Go to your file manager.
3.go to this public_html folder in ur home directory.



4. u can delete the www folder inside public_html and then upload fresh ... (or move contents of ur public_html/www directory to public_html)

if u chose to upload fresh
5. upload your index file and other images n files here .



6. once upload shows 100%. target ur browser to
your username.x10hosting.com ...
u must be able to see ur site...

Oops!... I don't think, there is a DIRECTORY with name www inside public_html.

public_html is the directory in your user directory. www can be found in /home/<yourusername>. But, that is a LINK to public_html. Its NOT an actual directory. Modifying contents inside www will be reflected in contents of public_html.

Please re-check the information. Staff members Correct me, If I'm wrong.

yeah buddy i agree wid u ... but i think revan has made a www directory inside his public_html directory..and uploaded his files inside this www directory with in public_html ... so wen he types his domain name

http:gamecentral.x10hosting.com

it shows him the www directory..
while on getting insidewww i.e.

http:gamecentral.x10hosting.com/www/

his index page is visible.

 

[kajasweb]

Oh!.. OK.. Then, he can delete the "www" directory inside public_html and the files can be uploaded to public_html directory directly.

BTW, The home page should have index.html or index.php and files should have proper permissions.

I'm NOT able to see this home page inside www directory. I just see the HTML source.

 

[revan619]

Your main page needs to be index.html or index.php, or it will give you that.

the web is www.gamecentral.x10hosting.com

can someone please check this

 

[kajasweb]

You didn't uploaded your homepage with index.html or index.php as name. I just saw a directory .smileys and a PHP file with name .wysiwygPro_edit_Index_html.php

You've mentioned file permissions....is there a need for anyone but the owner/administrator to have access? Since public_html is viewable by everyone(according to Corey's "getting started" info it seems like the files need to be individually protected (ie 700) esp. php files which contain database connection strings. I was going to put my php files in a different directory (ie: /home/userid) that is not publicly accessible but I gave up after getting 404 errors no matter how I referenced the parent directory of public_html. Any suggestions?
thx

 

[kajasweb]

No. You have to put all your files inside "public_html" directory only. Just give 644 Permission for PHP Files.

 

[kkitty]

If files have -44(read to group and others) then won't the database connection strings in the php files be exposed?

some times default.php can also be
