What did you expect to happen or show when you open the testsite directory?

Check your .htaccess rules, you may have protected your directory by accident. If you used the “Protected Directories” tool in the client area or the “Directory Privacy” option in the control panel, see if you can remove it from there, otherwise you’ll have to delete the relevant authentication lines from your .htaccess file.
