I just finished creating my site in iWeb and I'm ready to publish it to my host server (Dreamhost). So I used the built in FTP thing to upload all the files to the site directory on Dreamhost's site.

Before making the new site in iWeb, I had a Wordpress-based site with the same URL as I'm gonna use for this one. So I deleted all the files that had to do with Wordpress that were in my site directory (I backed them up, don't worry). So now I just have the files I created in iWeb in my site directory. However, I'm getting a 404 screen for my site. So I checked the box next to the folder with all my files and clicked Install (assuming it means make those files active on my site). But it just brought me to a page that said this:

The net2ftp installer script has been copied to the FTP server.
This script runs on your web server and requires PHP to be installed.

In order to run it, click on the link below.
http://iaskedforbacon.com/net2ftp_installer.php?security_code=yr1dv5gk8lfb2b0iwf

net2ftp has tried to determine the directory mapping between the FTP server and the web server.
Should this link not be correct, enter the URL manually in your web browser.


So I clicked that link, but it says:

Not Found

The requested URL /net2ftp_installer.php was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.


How do I go about making the files I uploaded active on the site? It doesn't seem to be this difficult for others using iWeb...
