New installation - can't get past database login

I have more information: I am on a Windows based server and not a Linux so that will affect the commands that I use to set permissions. Can you please tell me what those would be? Also, there is a setting on the hosting company called IIS settings that I am having a problem accessing, but I am working with the hosting company about this.

But isn't there a place to go to build my shopping cart? I am confused.

Yes. You will probably only be able to set folder and file permissions using your hosting control panel.

Also, there is a setting on the hosting company called IIS settings that I am having a problem accessing, but I am working with the hosting company about this.

As I've never worked with Windows IIS Servers I have no idea.

Best advice - get your hosting company to switch you to a Linux server if they offer a choice of Windows or Linux.

Re: New installation - can't get past database login

Hello, I have edited my permissions on the host server and I need to get the permissions code for changing permissions on the server - I am on a windows based system so Linux commands won't work.

Re: New installation - can't get past database login

There is a code for changing permissions with using FTP on a Linux server, or it can be done via the hosting control panel, . But with Windows you need to use the File Manager in the hosting control panel, or else run the site as a FrontPage Web and use that to alter permissions. Using FrontPage is not recommended for PHP based sites, and FrontPage is no longer supported by Microsoft.
