configure.php error message

**webmissie1** · 09-15-2005, 09:51 AM

Just installed and followed the directions exactly. I can get to the admin and the front page but I am still getting the nasty red error on the front page of the store "I am able to write to the configuration file: /catalog/includes/configure.php". I have checked the properties on this file three times and Im beyond sure that it is set to 644. I even changed it to 777 and then back to 644 just to be sure. Is there a refresh or a time limit or something that I need to do. Please let me know if there is a secret code Im missing somewhere. Any help appreciated.

Ok I followed the directions I found in another post and chmod to 444. The error disappeared. Someone let me know if this is not ok, otherwise Im rolling with this setting. thanks

Yes,

Some server configs require tighter permissions security. 444 is fine and will not cause any problems. I actually recommend it for all setups once you have everything configured.
