I change to 444 to stop security but when I save it always goes back to 644 any way to chage and keep the change I'm using my FTP clinet at the moment.

there is no problem with the setting at 644, in fact that is the preferred way, unless you have some other problem with your server.

Are you using Windows or a Unix-based server? How are you trying to change it? Try using your hosts control panel, they should have a file manager where you can change the permissions. If you are using a Windows server and trying to use chmod you may get undesired results using a FTP program since chmod is not a windows command.

Ive had this problem on a fasthosts system and they are right it is not an occomerce proplem.

For some stange reason unknow to me on a linux server the hosting companys somtimes keep the chmod owner peermissions from being changed and you will have problems changing this

However you can remove that warning and there will be no problems with chmod 664 as its onlty the owner permissions that are uncganged so unless they get into your server account they cant change antthing anyway

 

Good luck adysheepy

:blink: Hi Peter, I have the same problem. Yep and its Fasthosts who are the ISP.

 

I edited the code and saved it back up to the server using Ipswitch FTP pro and viewed to see if the code had been changed. Yes its there....

 

Turn to the Catalog/includes.configure.php to CHMOD the file to 644.....

 

Actually see the change occure on the attribs come out of ftp and then go back in ....

 

Check the configure.php attributes eeeeeeek back to -rwx--------

 

I have sent a ticket to support so I am again in the lap of the gods.............

 

Nice neat change to the code, but it is annoying to keep seeing the warning error appear when you know you must have chmod it at least 50 times.
