Use GoDaddy.com to host site currently. Want to check out CMSMS, so started the process.
Going thru steps on Quick Install via FTP. Downloaded, unzipped files, then uploaded to server in a new subdirectory of the site.
All working fine until the following: having problem setting CHMOD 666 on confg.php file in Step 5. Went ahead to Step 6, set up database. Went to Step 7 and typed in the URL where the files are. Get following message:
Cannot modify .../config.php, please change permissions to allow this
What am I doing wrong so far? Thanks from a rookie.
Problem with CHMOD 666 on config.php
Re: Problem with CHMOD 666 on config.php
You need to allow webserver to write on config.php.
not sure how godaddy does it but if you can get a ssh connection you can just say chmod 666 config.php and everybody will be able to write on that file.
I suppose godaddy doesnt allow ssh connection so you might need to check you ftp client manual on howto set permissions for a file
(usually there is something like file options or context menu on right mouse click where you can set read / write/ execute rights for a file)
