Advice - webpage set up

I am trying to add an index page to a sub directory that i have created on .asp hosting but it does not work

e.g. url www.mysite/subdir/

in subdir I have a page home.asp ... a copy of the home.asp page from the main site root directory.

But, it does not work

I have tried putting up index.asp and index.html, but when I enter the url

www.mysite/subdir/

Still shows page not found.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

 

Could it be because you're typing

www.mysite/subdir

Code (markup):

instead of

www.mysite.com/subdir

Code (markup):

?

 

Sorry, should have been clearer, I mean www.mysite.com/subdir ... and it does not work

 

Try that put index page on the root and not on subdirectory.

 

What I am trying to acheive is to make the subdir a route directory, e.g. so "www.mysite.com/subdir/" brings up the home.asp page. However even when I try www.mysite.com/subdir/home.asp" it does not show ... and the fielis definitely uploaded into the correct directory.

 

Probably subdir and the files within haven't been accessible yet.
Is the status of subdir and files 755 and 644 ?

 

Thanks for the advice. ~I managed to get it working but had to use index.htm in the sub dir as opposed to home.asp
