Change the permissions on the existing configure file (777) or delete it. Your server is protecting it.

chmod 666 ea means that all files are writable ;) so you can upload them ...

You should be able to set the permissions using your FTP client. If not, you can do it through code:

 

Create a php file named "secure.php" or whatever. Put the following code in it:

 

<?php 
chmod('includes/configure.php', 0644); 
?>

 

Just put in whatever permissions you want, 0666, 0644, etc.

 

Upload this file to your server in the Catalog folder. Then run it in your browser: http://www.yourwebsite.com/catalog/secure.php

 

Although nothing will show on the screen when you run the file, it will set the permissions correctly.
