icandy Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Help Needed!!! ERROR Installing, stuck on database config page... "Can't create settings file, if /config/settings.inc.php exists, please give the public write permissions to this file, otherwise please create a file named settings.inc.php in config directory." Having this error come up when trying to give the write permissions... "500 'SITE CHMOD 777 settings.inc.php': command not understood" I tried all the other suggested CHMOD numbers as well. Cant figure out how to get past this point and nothing in the Getting Started manual is working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Perez Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Maybe your host does not allow permissions 777, try 775 This is clearly a problem hosting, not prestashop, contact your hoster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
