How can I make the stand alone version come up as my start page?  I uploaded it and when I goto my domain page I get something else with a coppermine link.  Is this possible?

Do you have another index file in the same folder? You need to remove it (back up before doing so).

If you want your gallery to show up as your main page when visiting your domain, you can't have it in a subdirectory. The files have to be in the folder that contains the web files, I guess http folder for you, at the same level as cpg132 folder. With that setup, it has to be domain.com/cpg132. You must move your files up one level into http so they don't need to be accessed via cpg132 folder.

If you will never want anything but cpg for your site, I WOULD move all the folders and directories up.

If this is just temporary, and you want a quick fix you could use a client side refresh to direct folks to the right dir.

Put this file in your root as index.htm or whatever your allowed start file is:
Code: [Select]
<html>
<head>
<title>CPG Refresh Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=/cpg132">
</head>
<body>
Redirecting you to the Gallery.
</body>
</html>

Caveats apply: see this url http://webdesign.about.com/cs/metatags/a/aa080300a.htm

I just realized what you were seeing is an index directory of your domain content and the coppermine link is the folder, since you have nothing in that http folder.

I deleted the ccpg132 and reloaded all the files inside that folder to the http folder and it worked great.  Thanks all.  I kinda realized that yesterday but wasnt sure.
