    This will be your CPanel login username.

    Then it would be the path to your site root in the server.
    What OS do you have?

    The whole line could be anything

    what you should do is

    make a file

    phpinfo.php using this code

    <?
    phpinfo()
    ?>
    Code (markup):
    Over there you can find the path

    This is typical CPanel hosting structure.

    Do as MegaMania suggested.
