smiles Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 I'm trying to add images and change my logo and keep getting this: Error: I can not write to this file. Please set the right user permissions on: /home/kdesigns/public_html/ecommerce/catalog//admin/oscommerce.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥yesudo Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 looks like oscommerce.gif is write protected - right click on it and in properties or chmod you should be able to change the write rules. Your online success is Paramount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiles Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 I right clicked on it and chose properties, but all that came up was a tab that said "element properties" and thats it. Any other advice?? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥yesudo Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Sorry - my fault i think - right click on the file oscommerce.gif not the oscommerce.gif image. Your online success is Paramount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiles Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 where do I find that file? i can only see the image file? By the way, thank you for helping me ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥yesudo Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 how do you upload files ? with whatever you use you should be able to see the oscommerce.gif file in the relevant directory - probably /images/. Your online success is Paramount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiles Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 I right clicked on it and it still says element properties.......... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥yesudo Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 can you upload images to the image dir ? if so another option is to upload your new logo calling it something other than oscommerce.gif and then change the path name in includes/header.php to call to the new image.

smiles Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 no, i can't even upload images. after i browse and chose the images i want to upload, it doesn't give me an option to upload. .......there is only a cancel button there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloodshoteyes Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 If your site is already on a server and not on your computer, get a good ftp program. Highlight the file you need to change permissions on right click, click on permissions and change to 777. You will need to add images for products in admin. You won't need to change the permissions on many files from this approach.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♥yesudo Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 try doing the right click bit I said before but on the catalog directory - failing that contact your host to see if they can help or can anyone else advise ?
