Configure.php permission settings?

Hosting ZC on a local server here, jut setting it all up offline prior to launch...

Getting:
"Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: C:/Program Files/EasyPHP 3.0/www/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file (read-only, CHMOD 644 or 444 are typical). You may need to use your webhost control panel/file-manager to change the permissions effectively. Contact your webhost for assistance."


I set permissions on it, no difference. Then I noticed the filesize was 0 bytes.. deleted it, site still loads no problem. Where are the mysqldb settings stored? I tried another browser to ensure it wasn't just loading the cached page.. sure enough, works just fine.

"Where are the mysqldb settings stored?"

Not sure if this is what you mean but:

File: C:/Program Files/EasyPHP 3.0/www/includes/configure.php
Lines: 50-58 (or look for "// define our database connection")

Windows 7 RC1.. you just right click and go to properties and set read/write access..

What I'm saying is that I COMPLETELY deleted configure.php in the path quoted by the error.. and the entire site functions normally.. so it has to be somewhere else!

There's 2 files you need to do.

you can save them to yout desk top - right click and then make them read only then out them back into the right folders.
