I am setting up the initial db connection. After opening createdb file within my site all I get is a light blue background image. Any thoughts?
www.smallbiz1st.com/createdb.php
htaccess:
RewriteEngine On RewriteCond %{SERVER_PORT} 80 RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?smallbiz1st\.com RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.smallbiz1st.com/$1 [R,L]

Have you A. Firstly created the database on the server in your hosting control panel? B. Secondly set the database connection in the vsadmin/db_conn_open.php?
Once you have done the above you then run the the createdb.php file from the browser https://www.yoursite.com/createdb.php. Doing so will then install the database tables and data.
NOTE - The createdb.php file DOES NOT actually create the database

Are all the files & folders from the template on the server?

As things are I am unable to see any of the files on the server by visiting https://www.smallbiz1st.com/about.php, products.php, categories.php etc etc etc. All I am seeing are blank white screens & no souce code. In Screaming Frog SEO the status shows as Connection Refused & Indexability as Non-Indexable & doesn't list any files.
Have you any rules that block site access in your .htaccess file?
I'm going to have to leave this as it's late here & I have to be out at 8am. I'm sure Vince or one of the others will be able to help you out.

Would you recommend I strip down all the files and start over?
