texasag Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 I have successfully installed OsCommerce, but upon viewing the main page I am receiving the following error message: Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: C:\server-path-here-removed\httpdocs/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. The server is running Windows 2003 Server with IIS. I have changed the security to read only from initially giving write permission. I cannot seem to get rid of this message despite the security being set as read only. Please advise. PS - Website is at http://www.dee-lish.net

ziggy13 Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 I have the exact same problem. You need to go into your ftp program and right click on that file, click properties/chmod and change the permissions, if you need any help feel free to email me.

I too am having this same problem!!!! chmod would work on a UNIX server, but it doesn't on windows/IIS
♥Vger Posted February 7, 2006 Posted February 7, 2006 Correct 'chmod' is an Apache (Unix/Linux operating systems) only function and does not work on Windows. To set permissions on Windows you need to use the File Manager in your web hosting control panel. Windows permissions for the configure.php files are usually 644 Vger

Windows permissions for the configure.php files are usually 644 Vger The webhost for this client does not provide me with a control panel access but i asked them to remove any write permissions from the configure.php file and they replied by telling me "there were no anonymous write permissions on that file".... Assuming this is correct...any other thoughts?
