This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file. I looked in the pdf file you can downlaod and they write that u have to reset the permissions to 644 or to 444??? I don't understand this part.....where do u see the permissions in the configure.php file, where should i change it??? And again it says change the permissions on /caltalog/images directory to 777??? where do u change those numbers i can't find it....what permission file r they talking about? and than u have to create the dir/catalog/admin/backups with permissions 777....how do u do that and the same with grahs directory to 777???? The last weird thing is that i can by typing in my url go to the admin site without it asking me for login and password? In the pdf file they write that u need to have .htaccess in ur admin directory so that it is password protected...i have the .htacess file but still it not redirect me to a login page....wy??? can anybody help me please!!!!!!!! Sorry my english is not so good but I hope u understand my questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonquil Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 1. Connect to your server with an FTP program, for example, WS_FTP. 2. Navigate to the correct folder and right click on the file or folder you need and choose "Properties". You will get a permissions dialog box. 3. Key in the numeric value (3-digit permissions). If this doesn't work for you, contact your hosting service and ask them to help you. jon It's all just ones and zeros.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionheartah Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 Hi I was using another FTP-server program so I downloaded WS_FTP try edition. In this u can give permissions digits and I did. but in the configure.php file i can only give permission 644. If I write 444 it rewrite it to 644? but still with 644 i get the warning message? :( and what about the admin problem do u have a solution for that sir?

jonquil Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 I am unable to help you with your admin (.htaccess) issue. And I don't know if this is related to the 644 you set on configure.php (did you also chmod the admin/includes/configure.php?). This thread is an interesting read. http://www.oscommerce.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=40084 It discusses chmod and sometimes what you think it correct is actually not. You'll understand when you read through it. Wish I could be more help. jon It's all just ones and zeros.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
