ok, when i go to view my store while i am setting it up i get this error message at the top of the page:

Warning: Installation directory exists at: /hsphere/local/home/cmbyrne/byrnesccgshop.com/catalog/install. Please remove this directory for security reasons.

 

Do I just delete that file? And if so, if i try to do it, it gives me this error message:

Error: I can not remove this file. Please set the right user permissions on: /hsphere/local/home/cmbyrne/byrnesccgshop.com//catalog/install/install.php

 

Any useful info would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried changing the file permissions to 777 and deleting the entire INSTALL folder and not just install.php?

file permissions can be changed a few different eays, via ftp, right click on what you want to change and then set permissions, or your host cpanel file manager, set permissions

 

if you go via your host cpanel file manager you should be able to delete the install directory

I take it you have some FTP software in order to upload the files to your server?

 

In my FTP software I can right click on a fild and CHMOD the file permissions. 777 is read/write/execute by EVERYBODY.

 

Have you tried to delete the ENTIRE install folder?
