Hi,

New to shopware 6, getting this error while access the the site after upacking the files.

**You should not be able to see this page.**  
If yes you are missing some important server configuration. For security reasons, all accessible files are located in the /public directory of your Shopware installation.

Please configure your web server to root your domain to the /public directory of this installation.

regards  
Shreyas

You should do what the error page is telling you 😉

You domain must point to the public folder, not the main folder.

thank you max. Was able to resolve the problem by correcting the DNS mapping.
