kidclark02 Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 Hello, I am having a problem with the process on instillation. How can I fix the errors that it says? See below, this is what is says. New Installation osCommerce Configuration The following error has occurred: The configuration files do not exist, or permission levels are not set. Please perform the following actions: cd /home/sites/site73/web/db/oscommerce-2.2ms2/catalog/includes/ touch configure.php chmod 706 configure.php cd /home/sites/site73/web/db/oscommerce-2.2ms2/catalog/admin/includes/ touch configure.php chmod 706 configure.php If chmod 706 does not work, please try chmod 777. If you are running this installation procedure under a Microsoft Windows environment, try renaming the existing configuration file so a new file can be created. Do you know how I can change this and what I can do to fix it? Thanks a lot awaiting your response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 chmod means to change the file properties, as far as read/write/execute. going left to right, rwxrwxrwx is like counting with binary, with the r in each column being a 4, the w being a 2 and the x being a 1 when installing most systems need to have the configure.php files at 777 after installation, then change them to 644 you can do this via ftp or the unix prompt. remember, UGO . . .

241 Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 With your ftp program highlight the file or folder in your webspace and right click, then select properties. you will see the permission boxes for read write execute. 777 is read write execute for all i.e. check all boxes You may find that you need to set the status to 444 instead of 644 in order to get rid of the warnings after install.

TerryK Posted December 27, 2003 Share Posted December 27, 2003 If you are using FTP to upload your files, the instructions in the URL I sent you are well explained. Is your Web site hosted through a professional hosting company? If so, try contacting your tech support for help if you can't figure this out. If you're running this on your own server, then -- in all sincerity -- I strongly recommend you move to a professional hosting company in order to protect the integrity of your data once your shopping cart is online, at least until you have a better understanding of the technology.
