I was just approved an Astahost account with the starter package. I explored the Cpanel a bit and have got the following problems :

1.Frontpage Extensions
The Cpanel states that the Frontpage Extensions have been installed. But when I uploaded my site on frontpage at "ftp://ftp.mysitename.astahost.com/public_html/" it stated an error that Fronpage Extensions are not installed on this server! When I opened my site online, I can see the page, but I cannot see any graphics/images! Also, my forms and other stuff isn't working either. Please help me out and let me know whether I'm publishing to the right destination.

2.Mysql and phpBB
I have created a user-defined mySql database. I put up a miniBB Board on my site and succefully created tables etc. in that database. But when I try to open the Bulletin Board, neither "index.php" nor the Admin page shows up. I keep getting a 404 Not Found error, while I HAVE successfully uploaded all required files via a FTP client (Other than FP) and I can see them in the File manager in Cpanel. Here are other details :-
> MySql DB at : myloginname_miniBB
> miniBB (Bullletin Board) files at : "http://www.mysitename.astahost.com/home/myloginname/miniBB/"
>index.php at : "http://mysitename.astahost.com/home/myloginname/miniBB"
(Note:Its not in the root folder or local_html folder, it does not work there either)

-*-*-*-*-

So, basically please let me know the following things:
1. Destination to publish site on frontpage
2. Good config for phpBB (miniBB) and MySql DB

All help is formerly acknowledged.

I'd like to add another query please!

No Images Seen Anywhere!
I have installed phpBB 2 successfully on my server & I can properly access all its features. BUT, I cannot see ANY images ANYWHERE on my site. They simply don't come up!
I desperately need help!

Though my site is humorously under construction, you can take a look - www.omkarshub.astahost.com

and the forum is at www.omkarshub.astahost.com/phpBB2/index.php

(Sorry for not linking these)

HELP ME!!!

Are you talking about those images next to forum names etc? Because I see them all, I don't know what could be the problem.

As for the FP extension, they are supported, but I think you need to install them manually through your CPanel.
