Warning :: Pls help

[Guest]

I just installed OSCommerce.

On the index page, there is this warning,

 

"Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/vision/public_html/store/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file."

 

How do i edit the configure.php?

 

*/

 

// Define the webserver and path parameters

// * DIR_FS_* = Filesystem directories (local/physical)

// * DIR_WS_* = Webserver directories (virtual/URL)

define('HTTP_SERVER', 'http://visionlux.com.sg');

define('HTTPS_SERVER', 'https://visionlux.com.sg');

define('ENABLE_SSL', false); // secure webserver for checkout procedure?

define('HTTP_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'http://visionlux.com.sg');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_DOMAIN', 'https://visionlux.com.sg');

define('HTTP_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

define('HTTPS_COOKIE_PATH', '/');

define('DB_DATABASE', 'vision_osc2');

define('USE_PCONNECT', 'false'); // use persistent connections?

define('STORE_SESSIONS', 'mysql');

?>

 

Thank you... *really lost* Hope you all can guide me along.

You don't have to edit the configure.php. You just have to CHMOD the file permission to 444.

Have you looked at the knowledge base yet??

 

If not then you should do so, the answer to this question and many others can be found there. You will find that osC does have a bit of a learning curve and reading the documentation provided will make your life much easier.

and to Chmod the file as stated above you'll need an ftp program, e.g cute ftp or WS ftp - normally you'll find the remote file and right click it and look for the CHMOD command - this will bring up the chmod dialog box. theres three sections with three options in each. the Chmod number is effectively the number that is goten depending on the options you out in.

 

to see more info on Chmod and work out the numbers go to http://www.webweaver.nu/html-tips/chmod.shtml

 

hope that helps.

Thank you for your replies. I have sort out the problem. It lies with the hosting side issue.
