I just installed WP3.5 and uploaded Angular Theme. I added the dummy content to test the site. I get an error when trying to view the site (message copied below):
Directory has no index file.
Browsing this site or directory without an index file is prohibited.
If you are the site's webmaster, you can remedy this problem by creating a a default HTML page with one of the following names:

index.html
index.htm
default.htm
Default.htm
home.html
Home.chtml
NOTE: Filenames are case sensitive, i.e., Home.html is not the same as home.html
(end of error message)
I looked in the files that were in the angular.zip and it had index.php. Why is it asking for HTML?
Can you help me? I'm pretty new to all this.

Hi lcook35,

When using one of the default Wordpess themes are you getting the same message? If so, you may need to contact your hosting provider to help you get wordpress set up correctly on their system.

Try switching to twenty twelve and see if the same thing happens to see if its a Theme issue or wordpress issue.
