I actually wasn't in charge of the installation; I was simply told there was a problem and to fix it. AFAIK GoDaddy handles the installation, unless it was my boss (also a possibility). But if I use a FTP to log into the server, there are three folders in the root directory; cgi, stats, and wiki(where all the wiki files reside). Additionally there are some files, like a php.ini, and some generic html files (welcome.html,missing.html) etc.
