SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Hi, I do not understand what's wrong with it. I wanted to edit the Editing Page Text. I went to Tools -> Define Languages -> Index.php but it shows me this error msg: Error: I can not write to this file. Please set the right user permissions on: /home/lencia/public_html/j-online/includes/languages/english/index.php I also got error when I went to the File Manager wanted to edit stuff... and it shows me the same error again. What's wrong with it ? :(

What's wrong with it ? :( The file manager is pants, do not use it! It will mess up your store for sure, use a FTP program. Better still install xampp on you local PC then install the store there and make changes, once done upload to your server, this way you always have a back up :- ) Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Okie thks. But I wanted to Edit my home page. But It doesnt allow me to edit. How do it edit it ? I went to Tools -> Define Languages -> Index.php but it shows me this error msg: Error: I can not write to this file. Please set the right user permissions on: /home/lencia/public_html/j-online/includes/languages/english/index.php
FIMBLE Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 its a permission thing, these files [if you want to edit them] should be set to 777. Another way to achieve this would be to install Define main page from the contributions area, it allows you to edit with WYSIWYG Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Thanks! Can you kindly teach me on how to set to 777 because I got no idea in those script stuff. It's my 1st time doing all these. I wana go mad already when it's like I am in the last stage and i got stuck :(
FIMBLE Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 use you WEB HOST file manager, naviagate to the file you ant to change, then click permissions, once there set it to 777 [click all the boxes] Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 use you WEB HOST file manager,naviagate to the file you ant to change, then click permissions, once there set it to 777 [click all the boxes] Nic Hi I've tried. But it doesnt work. Is there any other mtd :(
FIMBLE Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 what type of server are you on? Linux or windows Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Uhmm I am not sure. I am really have no idea lol. http://www.poznet.com/sg-hosting.html This is what I am using. Really thanks alot for trying to help all the way.
FIMBLE Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 looks like Linux, do you have Cpanel or Pleask as a web admin? Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
FIMBLE Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 then you should be fine to do this via CPanel file manager Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Yep I did went to the file manager.. then to the OS_Commerce and click to chg permission. Tick everything to 777. I enter to the OS_Commerce -> to the file which is for my website and tick everything to 777 then press change. Then i went to try again but still gives me the same error :(
FIMBLE Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 you have to do the individual file not the whole lot it wont work that way. catalog / includes / languages / english / index.php Nic Sometimes you're the dog and sometimes the lamp post [/url] My Contributions
SaintGal Posted February 2, 2009 Posted February 2, 2009 Uhmm but the prob is when I enter to the OS_Commerce folder there's only one file -> veralencia.com|j-online I cant find other file beside this.
