* On the ''Internet settings'' screen in '''Sites/Options''' the optional Directory parameter required is the path from your FTP root, to where the web pages are to be stored. Click the '''Help''' button for full explanation, or search the support forum as many people have found this is the hardest parameter to get right.
* The standard pages are uploaded after a 'change directory'; if this fails, the files will still be uploaded to the FTP server root. So some mistakes do not matter because if no change of directory was actually required, your files will be uploaded correctly.
* If you have enabled ''Realtime'', the realtime.txt file is uploaded without doing a change directory, by appending "/realtime.txt" to the supplied directory on the ''Internet settings'' screen in '''Sites/Options'''. In this case, if the web site directory is invalid, the upload fails.
* On the ''NOAA Setup'' screen the optional Directory parameter required is the path from your FTP root, to where the web pages are to be stored. Click the '''Help''' button for full explanation. Like realtime.txt, the upload is by appending the filename for the report to the directory and will fail if the web site directory is specified wrongly.
* See '''Setting up your website''' in Cumulus help for a simple guide to the subfolder structure you need to create and the list of files that need to be uploaded manually when first installing a website. Or see [[Website_setup]] for all the options.
* On the ''NOAA Setup'' screen the optional Directory parameter required is the full path from your FTP root, to where the webNOAA report pages are to be stored. (It is totally independent of the directory on the ''Internet settings'' screen in '''Sites/Options'''). Click the '''Help''' button for full explanation. Like realtime.txt, the upload is by appending the filename for the report to the NOAA directory and will fail if the web sitethat directory is specified wrongly.
