www folder not working, what am I doing wrong?

Hi! a surpass beginner here;

I think I managed to point my domain (joseperdicion.com) to these servers;

ns1171.dizinc.com
ns1172.dizinc.com

and I uploaded my database through phpmyadmin and my website through ftp to www folder.

When ever I try to access to http://www.joseperdicion.com I get the apache "great success" screen.

If I try to access folders I created like this one;

http://www.joseperdicion.com/wordpress/

I get this error;
Not Found

The requested URL /wordpress/ was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Apache/1.3.37 Server at sh126.surpasshosting.com Port 80


what am I doing wrong?

Upload to the public_html folder, not the www folder.

Thanks for answering, Coaster

Well, first I tought that this was my mistake but the fact is that I can see a copy of what I uploaded to www folder in the public_html folder.

Do I need to re-upload?

www is a link to public_html.

also. looks like your domain is pointed to eforwardct.name-services.com

You can check it out here...

It can take up to 48 hrs to propagate.

You can check your website by going directly to your ip and username...

http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/~username/


Dont forget the trailing slash.

Does it mean that I have to re-upload to public_html?

I have no idea who are eforwardct.name-services.com . Perhaps I did anything wrong in my domain control panel (it doesn't belong to surpass).

Yes, I checked before and it worked, that's why I supposed that I didn't need to re-upload to the public_html.

Sorry for being too newbie!

(1) You dont need to reupload.

(2) Double check your DNS settings at your host.

If the DNS has the correct surpass nameservers,
ns1171.dizinc.com
ns1172.dizinc.com
then you just have to wait it out....

When I do a whois lookup for your domain at http://whois.domaintools.com/joseperdicion.com I see this as your DNS entries:
Quote:
Name Servers:
dns1.name-services.com
dns2.name-services.com
dns3.name-services.com
dns4.name-services.com
dns5.name-services.com
These need to be replaced with what puckchaser recommended.
