You need to have installed in locally first, set up all the security and the database. Then move the site and the database to the host.
Sounds like all you did was to copy all the file up to the host server. That can be done thru simple FTP.
Did you un-rar the files locally, and then copy all the files to the host?
Now, you need to actually hit the site, using your domain name, and follow the steps in the user guide starting on page 6
Uploading Files to your Web Server
This section describes how to upload the files from the nopCommerce installation to a web server. This is for users not using Visual Studio and need to upload the site to an internet server using the FTP client.
To upload files to a server:
1 Extract the downloaded nopCommerce version to your desktop and create a connection in your FTP client to your web server.
2 Select all the files in the \NopCommerceStore\ directory and upload them to your web server.
Note: Upload them to the root of your directory that is set up for your domain.

3 In the control panel of your web server, go to database manager in the domain and create a new SQL server database, providing a name and user for the database.
Note: Alternatively, you can create the database using the nopCommerce Installation Wizard, providing the login details have the privileges on the SQL. You can also use other means, either through direct scripts or the Microsoft SQL Server to create the database.
4 After the database is created, enter the following to run the nopCommerce Installation Wizard, which is located at your domain:
www.yourstore.com/install/install.aspx
Did you do all of that?

No - You don't understand - With Godaddy, nopcommerce is one of the applications that they will install for you, you just go through the process and they do the rest. I am on the phone with them now and they thing their system went weird on me, as they are seeing that several things that should have been installed weren't. And that there is no username or password to the admin side. They are correcting it now.
Thank you for your help.
