now that site is opening.

that is apache server `DocumentRoot` problem in shared hosting. Because, in shared hosting we can’t change main domain `DocumentRoot` it’s pointing to `public_html` folder.So, we adjusted in .htaccess file in `public_html` folder pointing to `/farmOS/web/`. tank you. Already described in this topic [https://farmos.discourse.group/t/install-and-update-farmos-on-shared-hosting/2215](https://farmos.discourse.group/t/install-and-update-farmos-on-shared-hosting/2215)
