<p>I'm extremely new to Craft CMS - I'm trying to install it on to a Cpanel as a test, upon downloading the CMS is gives you all the folders for craft, and then a separate /web folder.</p>

<p>If you move the contents of the /web folder outside of this, it causes an error. I've also tried moving the craft installation up one level, and then taking the contents of the /web folder out, but this also errors. am I missing something extremely obvious?</p>

<p>It's currently set up as a sub domain:</p>

<p><a href="http://ea.cranberrywp.co.uk/web/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://ea.cranberrywp.co.uk/web/</a></p>

<p>I'm looking to make it like this:</p>

<p><a href="http://ea.cranberrywp.co.uk/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://ea.cranberrywp.co.uk/</a></p>

<p>But as you can see that takes me to just the directory.</p>

<p>Sorry for the silly question!</p>
