New User of OSCommerce

[bajalocom]

Hello forum,

 

I am a new user of OS. I have a little problem. I installed the Os without a problem but now it is telling me this at the very top of the site:

 

"Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/myprivat/public_html/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file."

 

I change the permision but is still showing me the error....

 

What exactly do I need to do?

 

Best regards

Set it to 644 and then dump all cache files and your browser cache.

I had the same problem some time ago.

 

I managed to find out the solution on the forum.

 

Try this:

Create a notepad or wordpad file and write/copy this:

 

<?php

chmod ("includes/configure.php", 0444);

?>

 

Save it with the following name:

 

chmod.php and upload it to the root of your server using your ftp.

 

Go to your browser and write: www.yoursite.com/chmod.php , nothing will happen but you will probably have your problem solved. ;)

I tried to find the edit button but couldn't find it...

 

After doing what I said in the previous email, you have to delete/remove the chmod.php file from the server. ;)
