Thread: Help with ad domain

housesitamerica.com

I have housesitmexico.com domain, I purchase an extra domain, housesitamerica.

In my public_html folder i have 3 sub directories:
housesitamerica
housesitamerica.
housesitamerica.com

What did I do wrong? are the three supposed to be there and if so in which one do I publish?

Hi,

There should only be one without the .com.

When you add a domain it is called an "Add-on Domain"
When you added on the additional domain an FTP account
was automatically created.

Check the ftp in cPanel to determine which is the correct one and delete the others.

Hello


At the moment when you publish your main site housesitmexico.com you publish to public_html

When you publish new site you publish to public_html/housesitamerica.com

Regards

Darren

Zuriatman,
In my FTP account under Users says:
housesitamerica@housesitmexico.com
and under Directory says:
/public_html/housesitamerica.com

How can i know which are the two to delete?

OKAY ... Please go into your control panel, add on domains and delete the add on domain you created ..

Then log out .. log back in and go and look in your public_html directory and see if you simply created another folder by this name .. if so .. delete that as well ..

Add the domain on again ..

take note how it is added on ... it will tell you whether or not the .com is added for publishing .. if it is you will use it, if not you won't
(a few control panels are different right now .. some using .com and some not) - this will tell you where to publish to ..

So I have to delete the
housesitamerica. and housesitamerica.com from my public_html and publish everything in the housesitamerica

Or I delete housesitamerica and leave housesitamerica.

No .. just delete the add on domain and redo it .. this wont hurt and you will be sure of what you are doing ...

No... go to cpanel, add on domains. DELETE the addon housitamerica. You must do it from here.

Log out.. Log back in and go to FILE MANAGER.. delete whatever extra folders remain of that name. Close file manager

Now go back to ADD ON DOMAINS and recreate the Houseitamerica no dots or anything else..control panel will do its job.

Now go to File manager and look in public html. If the housitamerica.com appears thats where you publish to

public_html/houseitamerica.com/

If you dont do it this way it may not work correctly.

I removed the add on domain. I logged out, came back in and in my Public_html still have the three subdirectories.
Do I just go and delete them in the FTP manager?

when I create the add on domain it said that I had to put at least one period ??? So it should be housesitamerica.

If your cpanel is instructing that.. then yes do it.

When you publish.. your path will be public_html/houseitamerica.com/

Karen

When you publish.. your path will be public_html/houseitamerica.com/

do I use that path eventhough the name of the subdirectory that was created is housesitamerica. ?
Shouldnt it be public_html/housesitamerica./

I publish the index (public_html/housesitamerica.) page and this is what came back to me when I log into the site:

Great Success !

Hello everyone out there
My website still is not working....
When I put the addres in the browser www.housesitamerica.com this comes up
http://images.google.com/images?q=ht...itamerica.com/

HELP!!!

Hi Mumu,

Since you cannot publish still to your addon domain
I can only think of one thing.
The set up was not done properly.
I suggest the following options:

1] Submit a support ticket to request VodaHost to install your addon domain. I think they will only charge you US$30/=

2] Commission the installation to a third party

and you problem will be solved so you can carry on with building your
website.

Hello Zuriatman,

Thank you for your answer. I already fix the problem.

I'm working on my site now
YAHOO!!
