I have hostgator as well, this is what you do put it above public_html so it will not be accessible by anyone. Then take webroot folder out of the app folder which is inside the cake folder, and upload it to your public html, or if the cakeapp is going to be your site just upload the contents of webroot folder to public_html. Then edit index.php in your webroot folder that you have just added to public_html and change these 2 lines if (!defined('ROOT')) { define('ROOT', DS.'home'.DS.'YOUR HOSTGATOR USERNAME'.DS.'CakePHP'); } and if you have changed the app folder name from app to something else then change this line too if (!defined('APP_DIR')) { define('APP_DIR', 'APP FOLDER NAME'); } On Nov 30, 10:01 am, rgreenphotodesign <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Do you have your domain home directory/doc root pointed to /possible > sub dir/app/webroot/? > > On Nov 29, 7:49 pm, scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Hello all, > > > Just started learning CakePHP and am excited at the possibilities, but > > have hit my first snag. > > > This is my first post and have read the documentation, but cannot find > > the solution to my problem. > > > I uploaded the full cake package to my server into the root directory > > which is public_html.
