LOR - my sites have gone

Same here ... 403 at http://www.japamor.com/

I see what you mean.
The top-level folder I'm seeing at the server is one with just a forward slash against it. I find that I can't rename it or do anything with it. I'll contact my Hosting company to see what I can do.
Thanks for your help eveyone.

It's somewhat dangerous to do all your freesite posting on one domain. You make one mistake, or your server hard drive dies and the ll spider hits your domain before the backup is reinstalled, and you lose all your good listings.

Just upload an index.html page to your root.

japamor · 2006-08-06, 06:10 PM

That's done. index.html uploaded and no more 403. I can't believe its that easy.
Thanks for that very handy advice Bill, and again thanks to UW, Lemmy and Simon for helping to plug another large gap in my webmaster knowledge!
