Cannot see public_html folder with SFTP client

general

I signed up yesterday, followed this guide and believe I’ve got LAMP running:

http://library.linode.com/lamp-guides/u … 0.04-lucid">http://library.linode.com/lamp-guides/ubuntu-10.04-lucid

I’ve configured a virtual host and when I navigate to the domain in a browser I see the expected ‘Index of /’. However when I connect through SFTP I cannot see a public_html folder to upload files into. Back in my SSH Client if I do:

ls /srv/www/mydomain.com/

I can see the two folders I’ve created (public_html & logs).

Can anyone explain or point to an article in the library that would point me in the right direction.

TIA

Paul

Have you tried setting the default path in your SFTP client to /srv/www/mydomain.com/?
