Problem with opening my website / e-store

[peel1ng]

When anyone tried to open my website/e-store, this is what they get -

 

Index of /

 

* _vti_bin/

* _vti_inf.html

* catalog/

* cgi-bin/

* css/

* imagesold/

* img/

* indexold.php

* justhost.swf

* postinfo.html

* sIFR-print.css

* sIFR-screen.css

* sifr-addons.js

* sifr.js

 

Only by clicking "catalog" that they get to the homepage.

 

Why does this happen? Is it becoz I install oscommerce under "catalog" folder? How best should I install it? I haven't done much on my website, so I'm happy to re-install if this is the best and easiest option to get it right.

 

Thanks for the help! It's been a very slow process for me. I've lost lots of hair, but I am getting there slowly and learning heaps on the way!

Nan,

 

You COULD delete that installation and move it to the root directory

 

OR

 

You COULD use .htaccess to rewrite the URL to the Catalog Folder

 

OR

 

You COULD point your domain name to the correct path

 

All of the above will work.

By far the easiest would be to go to the control panel of your hosting company and point the domain to the catalog folder.
