[rainman1960]

After uploading the website from Xara premium the mobile site doesn't work. My android say's The requested URL /mobile/index.html was not found on this server. Additionally, a 04 Not Found error was encountered.

Hi Rainman, Xara doesn't create a separate mobile version. The code is all held in your root folder, the one that contains your index.htm file , so there is no sub-folder "mobile".

So just use the same url for all devices:

www.mysite.com/index.htm

Xara has been creating a separate file in Host monster index_htm_files and I still get a requested url / mobile/index.html was not found along with a 404 error on my android

also I am not adding or subtracting files. I just upload and it does the rest.

Yes, when you publish your site to the server, Xara creates a sub-folder called "index_htm_files". This folder contains all your data files, css, js, image files etc. The root files index.htm call on this file to load that data.

I still get a requested url / mobile/index.html was not found along with a 404 error on my android

That's because Xara doesn't create such a file on publishing, it doesn't exist.

As I stated earlier, Xara just creates the "index.htm" file and within that html code it displays either a desktop version, a tablet version or a mobile version dependent on the visitors hardware.

Any thoughts on why the error messages?

Could it be because ".htm" vs ".html" By default it publishes as .htm

The error message is because your looking for a folder (mobile) that doesn't exist.

What is your sites url?

Your mobile site is there. Look at it on a computer & resize the width down. It changes from the desktop version to the mobile version. Although most mobile pages are mainly blank.

If I try your site on my mobile I get the 404 too. It's because you're redirecting it somehow to a non-existent file "mobile/index.html. Remove the redirect.
