So I'm at the very beginning of setting up my zen-cart. I did the install through Hostgators quickinstall system.

But for some reason it installed 1.5.0 instead of 1.5.1 so I want to upgrade now before I get started customizing & building my site.

I copied all new files into my from the 1.5.1 download & ran the zc_install & started going through the walk-thru but am stuck on the "Prerequisites" part

There seems to be the problem found of "store configure.php is not writeable, more info"

When I click on "more info" link it tells me to change the permissions of the files includes/configure/php to 777 (I'm using Filezilla as an FTP) & I did that but it's still not clearing up that issue allowing me to upgrade.

Am I missing something?

Thanks.
