Please help me set-up my website for the first time.
In my ftp upload software I see I've uploaded the necessary cumulus files. They are in a folder called'htdocs' which the website host provider says all uploads should go to. However I cannot view my site http://warstock.metsite.com
as internet explorer says 'error http403 forbidden' I understand I need to have an 'index.htm' on my ftp site. How do I do this?

Re: index.htm file
Hi
Cumulus will create the index.htm file and several others as part of the upload.
From what I can see you have uploaded the core files, so the next thing you need to do is tell Cumulus to start uploading the pages (inlcuding the index.htm)
See the 'Configuration' section in this Wiki article

Re: index.htm file
Thanks Daj.
I have now entered the website folder name (from my webspace provider)
in the Configuration - Internet panel on Cumulus. (Previously it had been blank). This has cured it.
