@Admin

Moodle requires a directory to store data which should not be web accessible. However, for security reasons, software on free hosting is blocked from accessing anything outside their own website folder. So Moodle cannot work with the way security is enforced on free hosting.

In other words, you cannot use Moodle on free hosting. Please consider using alternative software or run the software on premium hosting instead.
