I am a mac user and can't figure out this chmod 777

What document do I change it in? Where in the document do I add it? And how do I do that in Dreamweaver?

You don't add anything. chmod is about permissions.

 

Hit *Apple* i (the apple key and the letter i) on the file that you need to set the permissions for.

 

It will bring up a box. In there will be ownership and permissiong. Set all three boxes to Read and Write.

 

This is the same as CHMOD 777 (a command).

I'm sorry, but i cannot offer Free support via PM etc, and osCommerce forums prohibit me from putting any reference to paid support in my signauture.

However viewing my profile may provide links to my website or something like that which you may find useful.

I did it but I get this message.

 

 

Please perform the following actions:

 

* cd /home/jahzarad/public_html/catalog/includes/

* touch configure.php

* chmod 706 configure.php

 

* cd /home/jahzarad/public_html/catalog/admin/includes/

* touch configure.php

* chmod 706 configure.php

Judging by the root path that you provided, you are developing right on your web server correct? If this is the case, then being a Mac user doesn't have any bearing on it. Your ftp client should have permissions capabilities. The equivelent permissions for CHMOD 706 are:

User: Read, Write, Execute

Group: None

World: Read, Write

 

Hope that helps.

Thank you, I figured it out. I had to go through my hosting company set it in my file manager.

No worries.

 

You should also be able to set permissions with your FTP client.
