title: How to swap from XAMPP to cPanel
body: <p>I have a php website that I wrote and is functioning with XAMPP. I would like to transfer this to use cPanel. When using xampp, I had to put all of my files in htdocs folder for it to work properly. What is different now that I am using a different server?</p>
  
  <p>I believe that I have finally figured out what my problem is. I am assuming too much.</p>
  
  <p>When working from xammp in eclipse with localhost/project, if I want to add a file "test.php" I simply add it, save it, and then when I type localhost/project/test.php, there is it. This does not seem to be how cPanel works. Do I need to manually update it somehow? If so, how do I do this?</p>
  
  <p>Also I am using mysite.com/~lamar/test.php which is how it is set up in cPanel. test.php is in S:/Lamar/www/test.php. This may also be the source of my problem. </p>
  
  <p>Any ideas? As of right now I cannot even access any page of my project </p>
