I'm wondering if anyone can help me with a couple of weird issues. I have two sites that I need to host. I have added both domains to my hosting page. Now I want to use Sitebuilder through my hosting provider to create two different web sites. The hosting company states that each site should have it's own path and NOT use the root. So, under the hosting tab for site 1, the path is /1. The path for site 2 is /2. These paths correlate to /webspace/httpdocs/1 and /webspace/httpdocs/2. The idea being that each site will have its own separate set of files.
The issue is that when I setup the domains like above, walk through the sitebuilder wizard, and click publish, I get an error that states can't publish site, site URL does not match the FTP settings. If I manually use an FTP client, Filezilla in this case, and use the provided FTP account and password, I can see the /1 and /2 directories and I have full rights to them. I have created folders and files in the /1 and /2 directories, and I have deleted them just to make sure that the FTP account has full rights.
As part of this test, I decided to publish site 1 to the root, or /webspace/httpdocs/ and that works fine. But as soon as I try to publish to anywhere other than the root, the FTP publish error comes back.
Am I doing something wrong? Am I only allowed to publish to the root? Is there a way to publish to the root, then move those files to the /1 or /2 folder and then point the domain manually to those locations?
I'm really lost. Thanks in advance for any help with this.
