Do not create any folder. Upload directly in the domain root on your server (usually named public_html). You will need to wipe this install (folder), reupload in the root and run install again from the root. You can use same database details.
Ok i have done what you suggested without any creation of folder and upload the file to my server public_html and edited the permission on common, hta access and sitemap xml, for common i typed in 777, same goes for hta access, and sitemap. however after all that when i try to see my website, it said it is unable to read my index.php on line 0.
Just wondering if it is the cause of the install files?
i have seen hta access and sitemap file and the size is 0 kb. for index.php it is 31kb. I can't see where the problem is, i've asked hostgator for help they told me it is the problem with SS scripts, theres an error. Anything i can do about this?
