shinobiX Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I've seen this error before, but it's usually just as simple as changing the file permissions.... HOWEVER, for some reason, no matter how I set my file permissions on my configuration.php file this time, I continue to get this error message on my new shop's home page... "Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/bravenew/public_html/shop/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file." Has anyone else had this problem, where it does NOT matter how you set your permissions and yet this continues to appear? Any work around where I can just get rid of this specific error checking? This is becoming somewhat urgent at this point... ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!! Thanks in advance!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥Vger Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 If 644, 444 or 400 hasn't worked using chmod and ftp then try this: 1. Create a file called chmod.php on your desktop. 2. Put this code in it: <?php chmod ("includes/configure.php", 0444); ?> 3. Upload it to the root of your website 4. Go to it in your browser e.g. http://www.yourdomain.com/chmod.php - and that should change the permissions on that file 5. Remove the chmod.php file after use.
