So in Cpanel, I went to subdomains and made a new one (this is my first time doing this) - named it risingdeath and told it to redirect to the correct url.

However when you type in the URL http://risingdeath.borninblood.co.uk I get an error saying the page cannot be found.

Is there anything I am doing daft or has my cpanel not been set up right?

When I moved to this host my cpanel (and all the options associated with it) were transferred across, and on the package I used to be one there were a lot of restrictions that EUKhost forgot to refix for me, so I am thinking it may be another one of those problems...

Hello borninblood,
You won't need redirection. Just create a subdomain using Cpanel, which will create a subdirectory in your public_html folder. Use this folder as the root of http://subdomain.borninblood.co.uk

In fact, you already have risingdeath folder in your public_html and it is working. Just remove any redirection for the subdomain and copy the files to this folder for subdomain risingdeath.
