moezbud Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 I'm so sorry to bother you all with such a basic question... but, I've tried everything and just can't seem to figure this out. After the initial installation, I clicked on the "catalog" button. Initially, I received warning messages indicating that I should change the permissions on my configure.php file. I proceeded to change the file to read only. When I refreshed, I received a series of error messages including: Warning: main(includes/configure.php) [function.main]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/hgdadmin/public_html/catalog/includes/application_top.php on line 28 Fatal error: main() [function.require]: Failed opening required 'includes/configure.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/hgdadmin/public_html/catalog/includes/application_top.php on line 28 I've looked and found that the configure.php file is indeed in the includes directory right there with the application_top.php file. I went into the application_top.php file and have tried everything that I could think of in the way of changing the path to the configure file.... no luck. I'm dyin' here. This has GOT to be one of the most basic steps that is just supposed to work, and I'm stumbling over it.... Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions as to what I can do to resolve this, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! Moez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burt Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 It might well be there, but can it be "seen". What permissions does the configure file have at this moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moezbud Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 It is currently set up with user read - "400". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moezbud Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 OK. For any future users that receive this problem, here was my resolution. After some google research, I went into application_top.php and changed the require statement for the configure.php file to an absolute path instead of relative: require('/home/hgdadmin/public_html/catalog/includes/configure.php'); I don't know why the other way did not work for me, but I'm willing to be fat, dumb and happy and just go with it....

Moez Thanks for the tip Moez, I was having a similar issue but instead set the check rule to false on line 506 define('WARN_CONFIG_WRITEABLE', 'false'); because I had to get the site up and could not figure out why this permission issue was coming up despite what I tried...I'll be sure to try this when I get home later today, also I was having broken links on all my button images and may try this too...hopefully it works cause im getting a 403 forbidden on all button links :angry: thanks ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
