permission 755

[Metal Beryl]

hello!

can anyone help?!

i have uploaded cmsms to my cgi server.for the files to work i have to set them to chmod 755. The admin all pages are showing without any styling! see the url below for example.

does anyone know whats gone wrong? is it because i have changed the chmod?

cheers

easy to test... blow open the directory to 777 for a minute and see if it fixes it. if it does, work you way down to 775, or give ownership over to apache.

Unless PHP is enabled via a CGI gateway I see no reason to install CMSms under /cgi-bin. This folder has its own permissions because it is security sensitive. You should keep it safe like it is.
You can install CMSms along in /cmsms or /product and tune permissions there without touching /cgi-bin.
Hope it helps, have fun.
