Getting configure.php CHMOD Warning

[rfresh]

I'm getting the configure.php CHMOD warning when I start up my new ZC installation. I checked my CHMOD settings and the configure.php file IS set to 644 - so why am I getting this warning? This installation is on a VPS server. I have ZC running on a shared server with configure.php set to 644 and I don't get the warning on that box.

Thanks...

Some servers will work with 644 and others with 444 ...

Things to remember on 444

1 you may have to set this through your control panel as some hosts do not give you the ability to do so via FTP

2 when updating a file set to 444 you will need to change that to 644 or delete it, before loading the new file as it will not be overwritten if you load your file to the server and that is set to 444

Steps as Ajeh outlined and this is considered a security measure but this being your VPS you are in charge of it's behaviour
