CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi,

I'm new to CMSMS (actually to any kind of CMS) and have just successfully installed via FTP. This may sound totally stupid, but I don't understand how to start using it now - I clicked the continue button and I get the following message:


"There is no config.php file or install/index.php please correct one these errors!"


I did upload an empty config.php file during installation, and afterwards changed the permissions to 444, so I don't quite know what's wrong. I tried looking in the wiki and through the forums for any obvious answer, so I apologise if this is a stupid question.

Thankyou for any help, as a newbie I appreciate your responses.

Use permission 777 for install procedure ...

Oh ok, I just followed the "Quick Install via FTP" which said to use permission 666 during install, then after installation change it to 444. Should I reinstall completely?

No, if install wizard runs without problems use this ...

The install wizards ran already, passing all tests - it was only when they had finished and I clicked the continue button that the error came up (and any time I try to connect to my site). So should I upload the /install directory again and just run it another time? (I deleted it from the server after installation like the manual said to.)

Thanks cyberman.

Not sure what you mean - which error message ...

The one I mentioned in the first post:


"There is no config.php file or install/index.php please correct one these errors!"


(Happens when I try to connect to my site skymaiden.com.)

OK, thanks for your help - I uploaded the install folder again, and a fresh config.php file, and went through the installation again. It seems to be working now.
