Problems when uploading the site

[edmondwch]

Hi Guys,

 

I have finished all my work and it runs smoothly on my own PC, but now the problem is that when I upload my site, there are

some problem for the admin panel.

 

I have registered the site namely : www.abc.com

 

then the hosting company allows me to upload all the content by ftp to a specific folder "/var/www/html"

after doing that, the website is good, but when I go back to the admin panel, I can't load some pages such as

the file_manager.php, backup.php, etc.

 

Sometimes it will appear "Error: Backup directory does not exist. Please set this in configure.php.", etc,....

 

I wonder it is the problem of my admin/configure.php, I just don't know when it can't fetch such directory, and what should

I fill for the 'DIR_FS_DOCUMENT_ROOT'? I have tried '/var/www/html/abc.com/admin' but it doesn't work....

 

So pls help me solve this problem, thank you very much.....

you will perhaps need to create this.

create it if it does not exist in your admin folder.

You need ot give it write permissions also

Thx!

 

but finally I surfed around the web and solve this problme by using $DOCUMENT_ROOT

It does now find out the relevant directory...

 

hahaha..yet new problem arise, when I go to the backup.php, it shows:

"Error: Backup directory is not writeable."

 

for categories.php, it shows:

"Error: Catalog images directory is not writeable: /home/virtual/site326/fst/var/www/html/images/"

 

for banner_manager.php, it shows:

"Error: Graphs directory is not writeable."

 

.... very headache...hope you and other good man can help me also! Many thx!
