Havock Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Hello Gentlemen, I'm trying oscommerce on a local computer (running with Windos XP). I've installed EasyPHP and oscommerce without trouble. However now I need to chmod several directories. I know how to do this with my linux server, but how do one do that under windows ? Many thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥ecartz Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 If using simple file sharing and security in MS Win, there are only two settings: read-only on or off. Read-only on would be the equivalent of 755, 644, or 444. Off would be 706, 777, or 666. You would turn read-only on or off by right clicking on the file (or directory), selecting properties, and check (on) or uncheck (off) the read-only box on the first tab. If using the full ACL security, you have to figure out as which user the web server is running and change the ACL permissions appropriately. In particular, make sure that the user has read permissions. If not read-only (as defined above), then I would just give modify permissions as well. Hth, Matt Always back up before making changes.
