I've created a sub domain on my website using cPanel at test.mydomain.com, and this created a folder in my main 'www' directory called test.

In this folder is a folder called cgi-bin, and it seems to redirect the page to say "It works!", but when I upload my own index.html file to the test directory it keeps showing http://test.mydomain.com/cgi-sys/defaultwebpage.cgi instead of the index file. If I go to www.test.mydomain.com then it works OK.

How do I host my content at the sub domain? It's my first time setting one up so I'm a bit lost.
