What is the full path to my root directory?

Many web scripts require you to provide the full path to your root or home directory on your web host's server. Click the link below to download a simple PHP script that can determine the path for you:

Download Pathfinder

To install the program, unzip and upload pf.php into the folder on your server where your site's home page is located. Use your web browser to access pf.php on your site and the program will display the full path to your root directory.

In some cases, the path the server reports to Pathfinder is different from the real path to your root directory. If the path Pathfinder displays doesn't work, you'll want to ask your host for the real path.
