Hi
I cannot use subwebs with my Host "Newsguy.com" , but they told me I
could use a PHP/SQL program like Phorum. I've uploaded all source
files to a "Forum" folder on my site. But when I go to setup both
"Invision" and "Phorum" (PHP/SQL) discussion boards they give me
permission errors.
But at the same time when I asked my host about CHMOD their reply
was :
"For the CHMOD and CHOWN commands, these are generally used for
setting permissions for accessing a site's content, and I'm not sure
you'd have the direct ability to handle this through the member
websites"
To quote the Phorum install:
forums.php is [BAD]
Fix: change permissions to 777 or 666
settings dir is [BAD]
Fix: change permissions to 777 or 666
Warning: fopen(./admin/settings/forums.php) [function.fopen]: failed
to create stream: Permission denied in
/var/ftp/home/luckluck/public_html/forum/admin/functions.php on line
137 Could not open file ./admin/settings/forums.php. Please check the
file permissions
To quote the Invision install:
error "conf_global.php" does not have suitable permissions, CHMOD
"conf_global.php" to 0777 via your FTP client.
Can I setup a discussion board with this host? Does my host know what
he is talking about?
Thanks for all your help.
