uGoGo Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Hello If anyone could help I would be very grateful. I removed PS 1.5.4 totally including the old database, off my server. I downloaded PS 1.5.5. from Prestashop home page, unzipped it and FTP to my server. I renamed the folder from prestashop to eshop. I navigated in my browser to www.mydomaind.com/eshop/install I received this error message: Directory /~~~~/eshop/log is not writable I looked at the installation instructions in docs found here: There is nothing about changing permissions about any folders or files before navigating to the install file. I then looked for the readme file in the downloaded files, and found readme.pdf However, when attempting to open readme.pdf, an error message stating the file was corrupted and I should redownload it. It's the same in the zipped archive, corrupted file. Any assistance would be appreciated, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uGoGo Posted September 28, 2013 Author Share Posted September 28, 2013 @ Jiten rash Thanks, am already uploading the files again to another folder on server via ftp, I can only suppose the first upload missed some files or something. Will keep you posted once done. Not sure what you mean by one click isntall via cpanel, I don't see that option in cpanel folders. Or do you man Fantastico? Prestashop is not on the list of Fantastico installable softwares. Would be interested to know what you mean by this, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uGoGo Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 Okay, I reloaded all the files back onto the server, and still get the same error message. I checked the install instructions, it doesn't say anything about changing any file to be writable. Any idea's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uGoGo Posted September 29, 2013 Author Share Posted September 29, 2013 I probably have to revert to 1.5.4 - no problems installing that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uGoGo Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 Hi Jiten rash- thanks for askin, appreciate it. No, the problem is not solved, that is why I said I will probably have to revert to the previous version of Prestashop, which I can install without any problems, if nobody is able to give any solution.
