I would like to install WAM onto the club website so we can have members only pages. I chose WAM cause I dont need too much security really (there is no purchasing etc going on at this stage - just controlling access), I liked the idea of being able to keep all the members details in one place (as users) - and I use a range of coffeecup software - so this seemed like a good idea!

Now its not seeming like a good idea!

We host the club site with an external provider which WAM says is compatible Apache/2.2.3 (fedora) (see picture 'compatible.jpeg')

When it goes through to choosing the directory it chooses /home/eastlandtriclub/ which is not what I need. I need /var/www/html without the /home/eastlandtriclub/ bit. Doesn't seem to matter how I cut it I can't get it to choose the right directory. (BTW I have the same problem using the FTP upload in VSD - so I just don't bother and use another ftp programme to upload instead - which is a bit of a pain in the bum)

Anyway - anyone any idea how I solve this?

I am absolutly certain that I do not need the /home/eastlandtriclub/ bit because if I upload to there with my other ftp programme my website doesn't function - and I have double checked this with my server provider too.

Maybe the attached pictures might help - they are from WAM and my ftp programme.
