Uploading EP File

[aaronsounds]

I am trying to up load my Exel file through the split function in Easy Populate. I am getting the error on line 684 and 689. I know from reading a file posted by a previous member that the problem is the permission setting for my /catalog/temp/ file. I know that the permission level needs to be changed to 777 but how do I do this. The article says to chmod it to 777. What does chmod mean and how do I do this.

Chmod changes the permissions on the file or directory that limits who can access it. Setting it to 777 means anyone can access it. To change them, your host may have an option to do this. Or, if you can get a free ftp program and use it to set them. Just right click on the file.

I can't find this option on my host's admin page but I am using Dreamweaver for all of my uploading, downloading and editing. How would I change it using dreamweaver?

I don't use DW so I can't help you there. If you can view your files on the server, then try right-clickng on them. You should see a command to chmod or permissions.

Thanks for your suggestions man. I found the option located on the parent directory for that file located on the host site. Much thanks.....

I've updated my permission to 777 but still getting the same error. Here is what I've inserted as my temp file location.

 

$tempdir = "/home/southeas/public_html/oscommerce/catalog/temp/";

$tempdir2 = "/home/southeas/public_html/oscommerce/catalog/temp/";

 

 

Does any one see a problem with this? The file I read said that some users were able to correct this error by inserting $localhost

 

Where should I insert this???? :huh:
