Need some Host Gator help
I recently signed up with HostGator and I'm having trouble getting my second domain going. Here's the basics (with made up URLs)...
My account is under mymaindomain.com. That site works fine. I have my2nddomain.com registered and pointed to HostGator over a week ago. I put it as an Addon Domain. Now, here's my problem. I've tried FTPing to just about every folder possible and I can't seem to find the one that will make my site show up on www.my2nddomain.com. I get a really, really long page load at that URL before finally an error page shows up. www.mymaindomain.com/my2nddomain shows the site, but I can't get it to go under the 2nd domain. Am I missing a step? Which folder do I need to put my files in? I thought it was public_html/my2nddomain, but that isn't working. |

I was hoping for some help by the time I got home from work. Their online help sucks, so I'm going to have to call them up for what should be a pretty easy question that someone with a little HostGator experience can help me with. Basically, if you have used HostGator, you should be able to tell me if what I am doing sounds right or not at the very least. |

Re: Need some Host Gator help
create a subdomain..
like if your main site is epicwidgets.com and your new domain is blue.com make the subdomain blue.epicwidgets.com I hope that makes sense. Cheers, Josh |

Cheers, Josh [/ QUOTE ] Okay, I've done that. It says that it'll take a few hours for the change to be made. Once it's ready, my2nddomain.mymaindomain.com and my2nddomain.com will be excatly the same? EDIT: Nevermind on the question. I see it already redirects from the first one to the second one. Now I'll just ahve to wait. Thanks. |
