Configuration warning messages

Hi folks,

 

I'm wondering if someone might help me. During my configuration process, I got these messages:

 

Warning: fopen(/home/www/asmartgift.com/admin/includes/configure.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/www/asmartgift.com/install/templates/pages/install_7.php on line 259

 

Warning: fputs(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/www/asmartgift.com/install/templates/pages/install_7.php on line 260

 

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/www/asmartgift.com/install/templates/pages/install_7.php on line 261

The configuration was successful!

 

It says configuration was successful, but there are several warnings before that. Before configuration, I changed the name of my database (the admin folder, right?), then I attempted to update admin/includes/configure.php with my new database name. But I wasn't exactly sure how to do this, so I probably botched it. What exactly should I change in the configure.php file? And if my web host has decided that my database is named a certain name, do I need to change the admin directory's name to that same name? And do I also change something in the configure.php file to that same name? Thanks.

during the configuration of the system, the configure.php files listed need to have permissions to be written to, thus 777.

 

after the installation is done, change the permissions to 644.

the configuration never completed. use your host file manager or an ftp program and set the properties to 777 for the two configure.php files, one located in the includes and the other in the admin/includes

 

after installation, change to 644

I'm using ftp explorer, and there does not seem to be any way to change permissions. Does anyone know how to do this with ftp explorer (or any other way)?

if you right click on the file you will see either properties or permissions, then you can change the file permissions there.

When I right-click the configure.php file, I only have three choices under Properties: Read Only, Archive, and Hidden. There are no chmod numbers, and my ftp program (ftp explorer) doesn't let me change chmod. If I choose Read Only, Archive and/or Hidden, will that do the trick?

uncheck the read only, check it when done installing

I have a Properties option, but only three options past that: Hidden, Archive and Read Only. Which do I choose for chmod 777, and which for 644? Because there are no chmod choices and no number choices given.

Okay, thanks very much for your help. But now I'm getting this message when I try to reconfigure:

 

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /home/www/asmartgift.com/includes/functions/database.php on line 19

Unable to connect to database server!

But I cannot get into the installation anymore. Now I get this message when I try:
