Recursive Write Permissions On Files And Folders

[avismiles4u]

Hello

 

I am trying to install prestashop in my domain but it was showing recursive write permissions on files and folders. i have also tried with CHMOD 0777 also. but it doesnt worked. please help me.

Try

 

chmod -R 755 ~/config

 

Maybe you need super user rights:

sudo chmod -R 755 ~/config

(It will then ask for your password)

 

I believe 644 should be enough, so try that first, otherwise 755. If nothing else works, use 777. More open to security threads, though...

 

My 2 cents

Im getting the same thin trying to install on a local host. Is there anyway to get it working without a script. I'm on a mac and am using xmap for the server and it is working.

if you type

cd ~

and then

ls -l

 

do you see your 'config' folder etc?

if so, try one more time:

chmod -R 777 config

 

and see if this solved the permissions for the config folder (the rest will still be red for now)

 

If this worked, do similar action for the rest of the red crosses:

chmod -R 777 cache

etc...

 

Please let me know the result.

 

N.B. I see another red cross all the way at the end of your image. Did you fix that problem already? If not, please show a clear image of that part...

 

P.S. I use mamp locally and that seems to work ok...

You could also make www-data user the owner of your prestashop directory (chown command)

Is there a File/Folder permission checker in Prestashop, like Joomla?
