This is called directory listing. There are two (2) scenarios:
- You do not have an "index.html" file. The web searches for your homepage which should have the following extension or filename:
- index.htm
- index.html
- index.php
- home.htm
- home.html
Basically, an index.html file is what the web recognizes.
- All files have been uploaded but are inside another directory or folder. For an instance, you have a folder named "mywebsitefiles" which has all your web files and you uploaded it inside public_html. When you access your website, you will see something like this:
Index of /~
Name | Last modified | Size | Description |
Parent Directory | |||
cgi-bin/ | 26-Mar-2009 14:12 | - | |
mywebsitefiles | 26-Mar-2009 14:12 | - |
Move all contents of "mywebsitefiles" to your public_html directory and try visiting your website.
