Have you tried 775? 777 might be too much

Hi,

 

basicly you need first to give the permission of 755 for all the folders of prestashop before you start the instalation process.

to do this, try any FTP client, I prefer using "Filezilla".

 

1- choose all the folders.

2- right click and choose file permissions.

3- edit the value to 775.

4- check "recurse into subdirectioes" option and choose "Apply to directories only".

 

after it finish changing the permission to all folders try to run the instaltion file again.

 

please let me know if that help.

typically permission problems are caused by 'owneship' issue.  Talk to your hosting provider and ask them if you domain name without the www is the owner of the files.  Tell them that you domain must be owner of files....
