    The problem is that i create a website first time and dont know how to upload this site then i decided to take help from videos and i upload my site on my domain name (in Ftp file manager in public html) but its create problems and i delete the forum folder which i upload and also delete the data base which i created. After all that when i open my site in the web browser here there is three option displays

    Index of /
    cgi-bin/
    images/
    postinfo.html

    Apache/2.2.9 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.9 OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5 mod_auth_passthrough/2.1 mod_bwlimited/1.4 FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 mod_jk/1.2.25 Server at www.onlineforumfree.com Port 80

    first when i instilled the phpbb3 forum on my domain above there are four option displayed

    when i open my site which is onlineforumfree.com the following option was displayed

    cgi-bin/
    phpbb3
    images/
    postinfo.html

    and when i click on phpbb3 then the home page of my forum is open and the url structure is something like that

    onlineforumfree.com/phpBB3

    thats why i delete the forum but i still the above three option are displayed on my website

    This means that there is nothing on your web site.
    What you see is a list of things that is within your public_html folder
    So, the things that are on your website right now is a folder called cgi_bin - this is used for running cgi-scripts and are located on almost every accoundt on the web by default.
    Then there is a folder called images - if you click on it you will see the contents of the images-folder, which is completely empty.
    Then there is a file called postinfo.html which is a default file for microsoft web publishing.

    so, basically, you have absolutely nothing on your website right now. It is totally empty.

    If you oonly have the forum you should upload all files directly to public_html and if you have a site and a separate forum, you should place the filse to the forum in a folder that you name "forum" for example, and upload all of it to public_html
    This would put your forum at the url: www.onlineforumfree.com/forum
