What folder and or files must be writable?

Hello to everyone.

I just installed ZenCart 1.3.9 in Spanish, because that is my language.
This text is translated with http://translate.google.es/, so I notice that may contain inadvertent errors.

ZenCart installation completed in a Windows server with IIS7, and finally being able to work, I had to make several folders writable, among which are "admin ", "include", "cache", "medium ","pub. "

This extreme solution, it was because I had frequently "500 Internal Server Error", but without being able to know where the aforementioned error happened exactly, but I could realize that it was lack of write permissions on some files.

Obviously I should not leave these folders with that level of insecurity, and for that reason I would like to make a very timely question to you.

Is there somewhere a list of folder and / or files must be writable as well as those who just must have read permission?

I think only that I need to start testing ZenCart, which I think is, as they say in the slogan "A real art

Here is my test URL: http://www.louisbigmarket.com/

Thanks. :blush:

Hi, usr50,

Thank you very much.

I will get into action immediately, and I will apply the recommendations you've given.

May I have no problem on my Windows hosting because I can use the tool "File Manager", with which I can easily apply any level of permission on any folder or file individually.

This is an excellent forum.

Hello usr50,

Your suggestion was perfect.

Everything works fine, and now I am applying some minor translations that are still missing in the distribution I downloaded.

Again, thank you very much.

:D
