I receive this error message: "Directory Listing Denied. This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed."

This error message occurs simply because you have not setup your own default page. As you may know, you can have your own default page such as home.aspx, default.aspx, default.php, etc. If you have this kind of default page, you need to add the default page via your Control Panel -> lick on your domain -> Web Directory -> Default Document tab and you need to add your own default document here

If you are experiencing this message when accessing your site, you just need to create a home page (or rename an existing one) to match one of the valid default document names. The home page needs to be uploaded to the root folder of your site, i.e. httpdocs folder. Any sub-folders in your site conform to the identical rules for serving a default document
