Lightbox and Permission

Hi together,

to adjust my lightbox module, i tried to alter the lightbox.js file. this works fine, but i can't overwrite the actual file on the server (over ftp client) because there is a permission denied error. That's why i tried to chmod the files, but this doesn't work for the same reason.

anybody knows a solution??

tanks a lot!

PLEASE DONT USE MODULEMANAGER FOR INSTALLING MODULES!

That's the reason for your permission trouble - if you install modules via ModuleManager your server (httpd damon) will be the owner of these files. And your server is NOT the same like the FTP-User, so you cant chmod it.
