"Website Coming Soon" how do I get my store going?

I know this is a real stupid question, but I am new at this. I searched the forums but real don't know what I am looking for.

When I type in my domain name I get a:

"Website Coming soon"
"If you are the owner of this web site you have not uploaded (or incorrectly uploaded) your web site. For information on uploading your web site using FTP client software or web design software, click here for FTP Upload Information."

I thought my site was uploaded, I use GoDaddy and they did the installation and hosting.

My file tree at my host looks like this:

(folder) _db_backups
(folder) cgi
(folder) php_uploads
(folder) zencart
favicon.ico
gdform.asp
gdform.php
missing.html
webformmailer.php
welcome.html

What do I need to do or what am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the help!

What happens when you enter yourdomainname.com/zencart ?

Re: "Website Coming Soon" how do I get my store going?

My store comes up as if I hit online catalog button.

What do I need to do to eliminate the "website coming soon" and be sent directly to my site?

This is why it's always better to install Zencart (and other programs) yourself rather than letting your host do it. That way you can install it anywhere you want.
