The catalog folder is not your root folder. If oscommerce is the only thing
you are going to have on the site. then try uninstalling what you have
right now, then reinstall without naming a install directory.
For instance if you are installing from Cpanel or fantastico, when you
install it, it will ask you to name the install directory, just leave that
blank and it will install in the actual public_html folder,which is where
you need it.
This is usually because you are missing a index.htm or index.php file from
the main directory of your site. If you are using oscommerce as your site
then you should have a index.php file in the main web directory. Depending
on how you installed it, sometimes you might have installed into a
different folder within your main directory such as “store” or “shop” which
means that when you go to your main URL it is not automatically entering
the right directory.

“home page” show up. Thank you Brad
