I'm using my own host, I don't have the 'www' folder

I completed this stage with my own host, however I couldn't find a 'www' folder anywhere on Cyberduck, I'm only greeted with "mysql_backups" and "public_html". I tried creating "www" folder here and uploading the files, but the site just displays an "Error establishing a database connection" message". Can anyone help?

You have to add your stuff to the public_html folder mate

Hi Daiyaan,

Don't worry, you can store all your files in your public_html folder. :-)
