Creating a subdomain problem (VPS)

[Ashleyuk1984]

Trying to create a subdomain, I'm sure I have managed to do this before... but for some reason now, I can't seem to do it correctly??

Within cPanel, I go to Subdomains, make up a name for it, and click create.

So now, my subdomain is

test.releasethread.com/

The default page is now showing.

But I can't seem to change it, or do anything with it. It just stays as the default page.

However, if I change the URL to read as:

releasethread.com/test/

Then my dummy index.html that I've made is found.

How do I get this to show the URL correctly??

Upload a .html file or any other file that you want to:

test.releasethread.com/

via FTP.

I think this will solve the problem.

restart VPS or restart apache

I uploaded a file to the folder that cPanel created for me when creating the subdomain.
I will try restarting the VPS as per "pioneer_fawad" suggestion.

Unfortunately rebooting the VPS didn't work.

one thing after restarting also clear your browser history

Upload a .html file to the subdomain, but first check it via FTP if there is something there. If you have a file before you upload the .html document, delete it and after that upload the test .html file.
