Pikachu2000 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 Your best bet is probably get support from the author of the application. As it stands right now, we don't even know what application you're talking about.

gristoi Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 unless a .htaccess file dictates otherwise all URLs automatically direct the root to index.html or index.php. so whats the issue?

trq Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 unless a .htaccess file dictates otherwise all URLs automatically direct the root to index.html or index.php. so whats the issue? This is NOT done automatically, it is a configurable option, just like most everything else to do with http servers.

gristoi Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 thorpe apologies should have been clearer in my response. if you are being advised to use fantastico I am going to hazard a guess that you are trying to upload a wordpress Site? is this right. What i meant to say is that most hosting companies look for the index file so when you go to www.mysite.com/ it will look for ( usually) www.mysite.com/index.php ( or html). but yes thorpe is right this is completely configurable. So you need to give a bit more information to get some help?
