how to create Public_html folder

[Biff]

Hey all,

Newb here and I have a quick (and probably stupid) question.

I accidentally deleted my Public_html folder today... long story!! Anyway, how can i create a new one? :o

cd /home/user/domains/domain
mkdir public_html
chown user:user public_html
chmod 755 public_html

You can also do it from the File Manager. And also its public_html not Public_html. Case matters.

And i tried this but when i uploaded the new files the site still hasn't changed. The old public_html file had a red arrow on it in the File Manager, the one i created doesn't?

Any more ideas??

Just execute these commands in ssh.

Whats that?? :o I'm sorry to be such a pain in the ass but I know very little about computers.... :o

The one with the red arrow was the symlink to the real public_html folder. It is not necessary. The real public_html folder is supposed to be in /home/your_username/domains/your_domain_name/ Check that.

Also its helpful to tell us what the domain is so we can check it. You may have a problem you don't know about like the domain expired or its not a registered domain or not pointing to the correct nameservers. That is the main reasons my customers domains don't work.

All sorted. The folder wasn't deleted :o just the link to it like you said Floyd. :)

Thanks a million guys, i owe you one!
