Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/hugues/public_html/magasin/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.

make a blank file called chmod.php

edit the file, and inside put the following code:

<?php
chmod("includes/configure.php", 0444);
chmod("admin/includes/configure.php", 0444)
?>

place this file in the root of your store - where there is an index.php file, and an ipn_main_handler.php file

then, go to the file by going to yourstore.com/howeveryougettoyourstore/chmod.php

It should show a blank page

Once thats done.. visit your store.. message is gone :)

yup.. its just as good as doing it via FTP - the problem with FTP sometimes it will change to 644 instead.. with this i've used it on several stores and never had a problem with it. Make sure its 444 and that the paths are leading to your configure files.. if you renamed admin then change "admin" to whatever you renamed it to and you're good to go
