Hi
I have a problem with sourceforge hosting
At
http://pop2owa.sourceforge.net/
Cannot modify /home/groups/p/po/pop2owa/htdocs/config.php, please change permissions to allow this
config.php are set to 0777
If I config the file manualy, I get a error with write permisions of temp dirs (that are set to set to 0777 also)
Any help?

you don't 777 files, use 666 instead

With 666 don't work.
Any user have problems with sourceforge hosting?
Why I can't write in the config.php file if is set with 777 or 666?

then it's about the user.
Who own's the files? The owner should be the webserver.

I'm the owner, and the the group is the project.
¿I need a htaccess file?
Anyone has this CMS hosted in sourceforge?

Hi.
I find the problem. SourceForge no long allows web applications to write to the project group directories
https://sourceforge.net/docman/display_ ... ermissions
I'm tring to fix this, but the temp path ARE HARDCODED!
I need make some changes in the source code I will post a "how to" to instal this CMS in SF.
¿I'm the only user to try to install this in Sourceforge?

Apparently so.
If you use 0.11 beta4, you can set the paths to writable directories in fileloc.php. We pulled off a sf.net install a month or two ago by changing the dirs in that file.
Unfortunately, I don't quite remember the details as to how we did it.

Oh, yeah, I remember now..
It's very poorly documented on the sourceforge.net site.
mkdir /tmp/persistent/p/pop2owa/cms
mkdir /tmp/persistent/p/pop2owa/cms/cache
mkdir /tmp/persistent/p/pop2owa/cms/templates_c
touch /tmp/persistent/p/pop2owa/cms/config.php
chmod 664 /tmp/persistent/p/pop2owa/cms/config.php
Then change the paths in fileloc to match.
Their setup is REALLY stupid now.
Anyway, I hope that works!

Thanks, It works.
I try with paths relative to my proyect and the correct path are absolute.
