Ok, Need Help With CHMOD

[Flauvo]

Right.

I need to CHMOD an install.php file to 777

When I try to do it this comes up in the ftp log


[21:24:43] SITE CHMOD 777 install.php
[21:24:43] 500 'SITE CHMOD 777 install.php': command not understood

[Sygon.]

how are you doing it, via ftpor via cpanewl.

[Flauvo]

Well, i said "ftp log"

ftp.

I hate cPanel

[Encryptions!]

When one way doesn't work then try the next way.

The moral of that is try doing it in cPanel.

[Flauvo]

When i dont use cPanel.

[Encryptions!]

Well you never said that.

Dude, you need to have some patience here... remember you're the one asking us for the help.

What FTP Client are you using and what is your host? Could be a temporary problem, but I doubt it. Just give some details.

If your server is Windows then you don't need to.

Use a different FTP program, try smartFTP. Once you have uploaded the file(s) right click on it, click properties/chmod and change the number to 777.
