After a few problems trying to install Platinum 9............  

As we know, not all Servers will take CHMOD 777.. So when the relevant files are manually CHMODded to 775.. Setup.pl script turns them back to 777 and this creates one heck of an install and permission problem.

Remedy......... Edit Setup.pl for 777 - 0777 and make them all 755 - 0755.

I will make those MODS available for anyone who doesn't feel confident in doing it themselves........  Let me know and I'll Zip them up and post them..


Unless the code-makers want to create a valid argument in Setup.pl.. So that:

If (file name CHMOD = 755) Die...

else etc, etc.....

Bit above me for doing that I'm afraid..

I wouldn't dispute that Sonny. But as you can see by the messages here... My server will not allow files at 777; so it doesn't help when they are turned back to 777.

I only saw this now. I chmoded some of the files that didnt want to take a 777 just by hand to 755. eblah didnt turn them back to 777. You think itcould be server related?
