I am stuck on Step 2 of updating to 1.10. I have a failed setting "Checking write permission on config.php". It says "File not writable! (/home/content/18/4216918/html/config.php)"
I'm a newb so how would I make this writable? I've read several articles and I am still Googling so hopefully before someone answers I will have solved this issue, if not thanks for beating me to it =).
Also Step 1 was a CheckSum where would I get the files to do this? I couldn't find any data with details on going about this so I just hit Continue.
Does anyone know how to change the PHP time limit to a file? Refer to image to see the ! . Thanks again for the help.

Re: 1.10 Upgrade - Config.php file error?
So I found this from http://forum.cmsmadesimple.org/viewtopic.php?t=1788
with this information:
Create an empty config.php file and make it writable by your webserver's user:
* - touch config.php
* - chmod 666 config.php
How do I set the file up this way? When I open my config.php file I just have a ton of data nothing that I can personally change (to my knowledge). My site is hosted with GoDaddy so my next question would be is this where I would make that file writable?

Re: 1.10 Upgrade - Config.php file error?
Grab a FTP program (like Filezilla http://filezilla-project.org/)
Login to your hosting account
Right Mouse click the 'config.php' file
"File Permissions" -> 666 or allow read and write for the three options.
Presto!
(alternatively, go to you GoDaddy admin panel, look for a file manager and set permissions)

Re: 1.10 Upgrade - Config.php file error?
You connect with your preferred FTP client (FileZilla for example) look for config.php and change "permissions" (right click).
If you are stuck on that part and before installing 1.10 you should also check all modules, plugins, udt's that your site is using, then honestly i would suggest you a professional help.
But anyway before doing anything make sure you have a backup of Database and Files from your working version.
Edit: oh M@rtijn was faster

Re: 1.10 Upgrade - Config.php file error?
Thanks to the both of you. Attempting this right now. I've been using FileZilla so I am familiar with how this works, never knew I could right-click though. Also uniqu3 I am updating all modules / plug-ins, etc and I've made a backup.
Edit: Worked perfect thank you both!
