Hi there,
I am a first time user of website access manager so this is probably something really stupid.

When i set up the programme and look for the root folder it shows a list of folders but not my www folder, where my index file is.

I tried using /root and when it came to setting up a folder to protect it again showed a list of all my folders except the www folder.

Noticing that all my files were also showing in the public_html folder i protected that. The protection works perfectly if i use http://mysite.com but not if i use http://www.mysite.com

when i look at the edit ftp settings it shows that /root is the path. i tried going into the advanced and manually putting in /root/www but it seems to make no difference.


I must be doing something wrong but cannot see what . . .

The public_html folder is your root directory.

Thanks for clarifying that.

ok . . . so why can i not see the www directory?

or do i just need to protect the folder i want to protect inthis directory, and the problem i am having with the www.mysite.com as opposed to just mysite.com is a different issue?


Ron

I removed all the files from the www directory (they stayed in the public_html directory) and i could not get on the site at all. I then replaced all the files - did nothing to the WAM, and now it works!

Awesome.
