Config House

[Guest]

I am having an error in my config.php file

 

The error message is:

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

 

What should I Chmod it to? I have it set at 755...

Try 444 or 644.

Okay, thanks Jared - I tried that, but it doesn't seem to have done anything. My site is Knot & Bauble if you can see the error maybe that will help. :blink:

What did you use to set the permissions? Sometimes, setting permissions via an FTP client is refused by the server. You may have to use a shell account (i.e. SSH) or the web hosting company's File Manager in the web hosting control panel.

:huh::'( I think I am going bonkers on this. Jared -I took your advice and used cpanel's file manager to change the permission on the file but I'm still getting the message:

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

 

I don't know what else to try. Any ideas?

Try to see in you cpanel ( of your host, not installation ), you should have list of chmod codes and what do they do. It could be different for every host...
