Hi
my forums are powered by my little linux box here that I'm using as a webserver. I'm trying to install the MOD... I don't have an FTP server running on there.
here are the settings I have chosen:
Reading: server
Writing: server
Moving: copy
this is what is displayed on the left:
File Access Info
read access :: OK
write access :: failed
root path write :: failed
chmod access :: unattempted
unlink access :: unattempted
mkdir access :: unattempted
tmp path write :: OK
FTP extension :: OK
copy access :: failed
When I hit "submit" I get this error:
Testing selected write method
ACCESS ERROR: phpBB does not have permission to write to the EasyMOD directory.
Write stuff about checking permissions and how to.
Am I using the wrong settings or should I have to CHMOD some directories? Also, which chmod command would I have to use (666?). Thanks for the help! this mod is too cool.
which directory to CHMOD? (linux webserver @ home)
Forum rules
DO NOT give out any FTP passwords to anyone! There is no reason to do so! If you need help badly enough, create a temporary FTP account that is restricted to only the files that you need help with and give the information for that. Giving out FTP information can be very dangerous!

Re: which directory to CHMOD? (linux webserver @ home)
okay after some searching... I ended up CHMODing the easymod directory to 777. I got this extended debug message:

Recommendations:
write: server
move: automated FTP
Selected settings:
write: server
move: exec
ftp dir:
CWD Listing:Code: Select all

Not testing FTP since it is not being used.

And is English installed? English is a requirement for EasyMOD, at least for now.
