Unix is CASE SENSITIVE, upper and lowercase letters matter! Make sure that your home page is named index.htm or index.html, not Index.htm or INDEX.HTM or Index.HTM.

Unlike Windows and Apple operating systems, Unix is case sensitive. That means that unlike your home computer, our server thinks that Index.htm and index.htm are 2 totally different files. If it is looking for index.htm, it will not find Index.htm because it’s not the same – one of the letters is uppercase. We recommend that you always use lowercase filenames to avoid these types of problems.

Make sure that your web files are in the WWW folder.

I can’t see my page, instead I just get this weird menu…

If you see a list of your files, you probably don’t have a file name index.html orindex.htm Double-check that your home page is named index, and that you don’t have any uppercase letters in the name.

If you have changed your WWW folder, double check that its permissions are now world readable and world writable. If you don’t understand what this means and you haven’t changed that directory, it is unlikely that your directory permissions are a problem.
