can't access the install.php page

Post by visionet »

Here's the thing: All the directories and files are loaded and in place on a subdirectory on my hosted site. I've chmodded the directories and files that need changing and I've added the config.php file (and chmodded that to 666) but I can't access the index file under the subdirectory (get a 403) and under the install directory when I call for the install.php file I get this message:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/homepages/39/d50763470/htdocs/cmsms/fileloc.php'
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /homepages/39/d50763470/htdocs/cmsms/install/install.php
on line 20
(I've wrapped this code for ease in reading)
Any ideas on what the problem is? I'm also asking my host (1&1Internet) if there is something I need to check on the server's MySQL database as I have to use their database name, user name and password.

Any leads on where to look next to fix this, greatly appreciated. I'm off to bed now as I need my beauty sleep!

That's my guess.  Some FTP clients are a little flakey and might not upload everything.  Double check that the file (fileloc.php) actually got uploaded.

Thanks for the help  :D
That sorted it out. (God: I hate falling at the first hurdle!!) The flakey FTP program at fault was Wise-FTP 3.1.0.0 from Ace-Bit. I can't let them take all the blame however - I should have spent more time checking that files actually went across.
