Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file:

[rodney-blue]

Hi everyone one well I installed zen cart.
I tried to fix the problem I did like the message said I should do I CHMOD the /myzencart/includes/configure.php
to 644 but I still see the error message.
I think the error message is wrong because I have CHMOD the directory like
it said I should do but I still see the message.
What should I try next.
I know how to CHMOD and set the files to the right CHMOD I do it all the time.

Try both the admin/config and the catalog/config files at 777.

Did you rename the dist-configure to configure?

Click recheck.

Go Green!

Well I dicided to try also to CHMOD all these files to 644

/admin/configuration.php
/admin/includes/configure.php

/includes/configure.php
/includes/dist-configure.php

But it did not get rid error message.

I going to try and CHMOD them to 777 see what happens.

I did not see a catalog directory and I did not rename anything.

My cart is at:
http://www.madecool.com/shopcart/

I CHMOD all files back to 444
/admin/configuration.php
/admin/includes/configure.php

/includes/configure.php
/includes/dist-configure.php

Still see error message are more files to CHMOD to 444?

[rodney-blue]

I going sleep on it

Make sure that your using your control panel to chmod to 444
most dont allow this through ftp

[Webskipper]

I'm so sorry. I saw unable rather than able.

Listen to Merlin, chmod too high.

Make sure both the admin/configure.phhp and catalog/configure.php pages are 444 or 644.

If it still doesn,'t work then clear your cache and delete cookies.
