nearly got everything installed and running now but I have a couple of problems that are stressing me a little :-

 

now that I've upped my site to a server :-

 

1. When using Database backup says that the directory isn't there when it is ?

 

2. I don't seem to be able to get Jack's Site monitor contribution to run ? it deletes the reference file but will not create another and when I change settings in the admin it says it cannot change the mode of file ?

 

this all worked fine before running xampp ?

 

hope you can help

looking around I'm pretty sure problem 2 is the CHMOD numbers on the files.

 

I have changed the admin directory from 755 to 777 to allow all changes but when I do this I cannont access my admin login at all ? comes up error 500 ?

just heard back from my provider - it seems they do not allow the admin directory to be 777 and regard it as a security issue - they only allow 775

 

will this ever work if that is the case ?

Wow that makes a brilliant change!

A host that does not allow 777 usually they insist on it!!

 

You might find the earlier version works better for you
