Hi I need the right number to set this to,

Many thanks Sid

Before installation you are suppose to chmod both catalog and admin/includes/configure.php to 777 so installation can write on them and chmod them back when installation is over

what is the definitive best permission setting for the following files/folders:

 

catalog/includes + files

catalog/admin/ + files

catalog/images

catalog/file_name.php

 

can you please use the table below:

 

________ Read__Write__Exacute

Owner

Group

All Users

your catalog/includes/configure.php and catalog/admin/includes/configue.php need to be READ only. so right click on them and set the permissions to read only. or use chomd to do this.

 

you get the error because these files are writable at the moment and this is a security problem!

The folder Includes is set at 755 and the Includes/configure.php is set to 755, when I try to change and take the write off owner to 555 and Apply, when I go back to check the setting goes back to 755; 755 does not give Group or Public write access?

What going on?

Help, Sid

Hi had to use the hosts c-panel to end up setting the permissions on the catalog/includes/configure.php file to 555, this seemed to work, still wondering why the FTP method did not, will look more into this,

to manage my files i use my browser. i put ftp://mydomainname.com and there's a prompt to enter my ftp username and password. when you get there everything is exactly like your windows explorer to manage the files. you can move them around by drag and drop, rename files and folders, change permissions by right-clicking, etc. pretty easy.
