config.php error

[Khaleeka]

I'm setting up an online store, and when I run the website, I get the following warning:

 

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

 

The permissions for config.php are set to 644 as per the instruction manual. Am I overlooking something?

Try 0444 and if that doesn't work 0400

And it wouldn't hurt to use CPanel.

 

FTP usually doesn't work at this for most people.

;)

 

And keep in mind that permissions less than 644 make the file "read only".

 

All that means is you'll need to change them back to 644 before attempting any edits.
