Well I'm checking the chmod and i've set to both 777 and 706 and retry'd multiple times and it doesent work still. I've even tried to install it over again. Any ideas?

The chmod command only works via FTP if your site is hosted on an Apache server using a Unix or Linux based operating system. If your site is on any other type of server then you'll need to use the File Manager in your web hosting control panel to reset permissions.

Well, posting that link doesn't help, because anyone else accessing it gets the first install screen. I'm assuming that the error you are getting relates to "touch 706", in which case the install is not able to write to the configure.php files. This happens most often on a Windows server, or any server which has not been set up with the correct user permissions.

 

Probably the only thing you can do to complete the install is to manually set up the two configure.php files.

No. If it's what I think it is then this is normal.

Last question in order to set up all of the configuration tables can you provide me with a link? and also do i have to uncheck one of the boxes in the beginning of the install?

If you look through the posts in this forum for today you will find examples of what the configure.php files should look like. You can also do a search of these forums for examples.

 

If you are able to run the install then:

 

Do not check the box to enable ssl unless you have a full ssl cert.

Untick the box to use Persistent Connections.

Tick the box to store sessions in the database and not in files.
