    Default really stupid mistake I did...very newbie

    Hi
    Anyways...to get to the point...I accidentally reset the file attributes to all my folders...and screwed everything up and all them were set to 000...so I tried to delete everything and reupload the files...that didnt work...so I reinstalled zen cart and then changed all file attributes to 775...but the bmz cache and db backups and .hcc.thumbs wouldn't allow me to change the permissions...so...how do i fix everything? I have backup files of everything...

    Dir. permissions are normally 775 whilst file permissions are normally 644.

    Missed the timeout but dir. permissions should have said 755.

    You had mentioned you have backups of everything. Might be time to delete everything in your Hosting account and do a reinstall from scratch. You can then import your DB an then reinstall any Mods you had.

    Not sure what '.hcc.thumbs' are but you can probably get by without them and your 'bmz cache' dir. needs to have the same permissions as your "images" dir.
