After your configure.php files have been populated, reset the permissions.

 

All Folders >> 755

All Files >> 644 (except for the 2 configure.php files in /includes and /admin/includes which should be 444 or 400)

 

If you need to make changes to your configure.php file(s), set the permission to 644, make your changes, upload them, and set their permission back to 444 or 400.
