themack21 Posted March 5, 2006 Posted March 5, 2006 I am getting this error when I try to restore my cart from a recent back up Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/highfi/public_html/store/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. I hope someone can help me... I spent about 60 hours working on this cart and if I have to start all over I am ditching it and finding something else more stable. Many thanks Frank

themack21 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 I guess I should give more info. I upgraded in fantastico on my cpanel from my server. I then when to the cart and it was as if it was day one again only my content was still there but all the changes I had made where all undone. All of them. I tried to restore it from a back up and got the error that I posted above. I am fully freaking out! F
themack21 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 Thank you but I don't know how to change this stuff.
themack21 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 Here is what it says to do but I am not sure where the files are and how to change them. 1. Rename the catalog/install folder or delete it. 2. Reset the permissions on catalog/includes/configure.php to 644 (if you are still getting the warning message at the top of the page after setting this configure.php files to 644 then set the catalog/includes/configure.php file to 444 which is read only - this happens on some servers that have been updated for security reasons). 3. Set the permissions on catalog/images directory to 777 4. Set the permissions on admin/images/graphs directory to 777 5. Create the directory admin/backups and set the permissions to 777 (this is the folder to store the database backup of your store in the "Tools" section of the store admin).
