http://fitnessmansion.x10.mx/ doesn't resolve to index.html

[fitnessm]

Can you see why http://fitnessmansion.x10.mx/ does not resolve to an index page instead resolves directly to: http://fitnessmansion.x10.mx/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi please advise.

Thanks

Try clearing your browser's cache and history - close browser - reopen browser - then check the site again

The "Default Page" has a bad habit of getting stuck in your browser's and/or ISP's cache

it could also be that your domain isnt fixed

No, it's the caching behaviour of the default website page. This is a well-known issue (though why anybody would want to open their website in a browser before they've put anything up baffles me).
The redirect to the default page shows that the site's subdomain is being resolved correctly (that page is generated by the system when the user's home directory exists but public_html has no non-default content); a local DNS problem would point to a "domain does not exist" page. The default web page is must-cache, and while it is easy to clear your own browser's cache (or open a different browser), it is often cached by the ISP as well (many static pages and resources are in order to improve apparent performance), and when that happens there is no choice but to wait for the page to "age out" (usually 6-24 hours).

i know with some hosting sites if your domain isn't set up properly through there nameservers it will give that til it has gone through the pagination of there nameservers. i would get that on a new parked domain until 24 hrs go by then it shows what it should. even after clearing the cache.

Mine took a few hours, then it was fine. If the domain stuff is set properly, and it's had a day to resolve, it should clear up on its own. Just hang in there.
