Site not showing
Hi,
I bought a website with all content. I used filezila to upload the websites files to my hosts c panel and my site is not showing.
What did I do wrong?

Re: Site not showing
Perhaps you uploaded into the wrong directory?

Re: Site not showing
No,as per my hosts instructions I uploaded to the right directory which is httpdocs. Is there anything else I have to do?

Re: Site not showing
You mean the site is showing a blank page? If it is, it probably means you've not uploaded the files properly into the right directory. Something went wrong in that process.koutsoun wrote:Hi,

Re: Site not showing
Maybe the domain has not propagated to the new location

Something others didn't mention is that sometimes you can't use any index file you want ... try all these
index.html
index.htm
index.php
index.asp
I had a similar problem with my ex hosting, I was using an index.htm file which they didn't support in their web server configuration
They said htm was deprecated which is not true and ridiculous as html and htm are the very same thing... just a naming convention
Always code as if the guy who ends up maintaining your code will be a violent psychopath who knows where you live. Free hosting
Re: Site not showing
.htm is an old, deprecated syntax, it is still there because some legacy servers still only support DOS (8.3) conventions. Modern servers use .html.

Re: Site not showing
Did you setup the database (if one needed ?) ? Sometime the developpers doesn't include any error message for a database connexion error...
