FTP Path Questions

[Ann]

I have an updates page on my site that utilizes Blogger's script. In order for Blogger to FTP the updated log to my site, I need to know what my FTP path is. With my previous hosts, it's been "public_html". With that configuration, my blog (the file being blog.html) has been accessible at mydomain.com/blog.html

I haven't been able to figure out what the FTP path is here at AOH.

When I go to the cpanel file manager, it appears to be "/var/www/html".

When I FTP, it appears to be "mainwebsite_html".

Just need to know so that I can get it in the right place, i.e., my main directory, not a subfolder or some strange, mysterious directory my account.;)

Thanks!

You mention cpanel in your post, but it appears your domain is hosted on a Ensim server. However, from ftp, your path should be /var/www/html

However, from a perl/php standpoint this is NOT the exact path to your site.
The exact path would be
/home/virtual/site26/fst/var/www/html

So I assume I would use "/var/www/html" exactly as is with the "/" in front when I configure for Blogger.

Because Blogger is an external script (all it needs to do is ftp to my site) I wouldn't be affected by the perl path unless I decide to go with Greymatter.

I hope I'm making sense as these technical issues are not my strong point.

use, use a / in the front as that specifies that you will start from the root of the drive.....or in this case the chroot (the root as your ftp user sees it)
