I hope someone can help me with this.  I'm trying to index a verity collection that 
will reside on the server of my hosting service, however, when I run the search 
template, I keep getting the following error message:

        "Error occurred in tag CFINDEX
        Directory access error for 'mydomainname.com/htdocs/mycollection':  The system 
cannot find the path specified.  The error occurred while processing an element with a 
general identifier of (CFINDEX)...."The referring http is my verity search (htm) form. 
 
Here's my problem:  
When I had CFserver on my desktop, I was able to create and index my collection 
through the Administrator.  Now that I no longer have access to the CF Administrator 
(as it resides on the hosting company's shared server), the hosting company says that 
all they do is create the designated collection and that it's up to me to index the 
collection with code.  
Though I haven't done it this way before, I looked in Ben Forta's CF Web Application 
Construction Kit and I inserted the following code in my "search.cfm template":
<cfset IndexCollection = "mycollection">
<cfset IndexDirectory = "mydomainname.com/htdocs/mycollection">
<cfset IndexRecurse ="Yes">
<cfset IndexExtensions = ".htm, .html, .txt, .doc, .xls">
<cfset IndexLanguage = "english">

<cfindex
    collection ="#IndexCollection#"
    action="REFRESH"
    type="PATH"
    key="#IndexDirectory#\"
    extensions="#IndexExtensions#"
    recurse="#IndexRecurse#"
    language="#IndexLanguage#"
    urlPath="mydomainname.com/htdocs/mycollection">

I put the above code at the beginning of my search template and I still get the error 
message.  Does anyone have any ideas on what I should do?  I didn't know that I could 
index collections using code (vs. through CF Server's Administrator).  Is there a step 
either my hosting service or I am missing?  

Any and all responses will be most appreciated.
