Hello folks,
I need your help please.

I just finished a project based on cmsms, which was located on my server..
today I uploaded it on the godaddy's linux shared server, and I need help with defining: $config['root_path']

my domain name is staskrupetsky.com, and when I put it as a root_path it doesnt work..
I guess that I have to put somethin like /home or /html before, but I dont know what is the root path on their servers..

Is anybody have experience with configuring cmsms on godaddy and can help me with that?

Thanks a lot,
Sasha

In the manual at http://wiki.cmsmadesimple.org/index.php/How_to#How_to_move_your_CMSms_installation_to_a_new_server_.281.29 i wrote a note:

Note: (update neeltje57) The path settings are not always that obvious. In your FTP-client it might show something like '/cmsmadesimple' but the real path on the server might be something like e.g.: '/home/content/n/e/e/username/html/cmsmadesimple'. If you have the wrong path, look at the error-message when you try to access your site, that will hint you to the real path settings.

Maybe this helps you too.
