All files pass, then I get fileperms() errors

When you clicked next and these errors came up, did you still have the fields to enter your database connection information?

I also had errors, but I just pushed on and then it asked to re change some permissions after the installation, and things are working fine. I also installed the ad-free, and didn't enter my license until post-installation.

No, no fields were present. Just a pink blurb with the file permission errors. It also won't allow me to push on, else I'm sure I'd be done by now. Great software it seems.

What should the permissions be for the following?

Next files have inappropriate permissions:
ray/modules/chat/xml/config.xml;
ray/modules/chat/xml/langs.xml;
ray/modules/chat/xml/main.xml;
ray/modules/chat/xml/skins.xml;
ray/modules/desktop/xml/config.xml;
ray/modules/desktop/xml/langs.xml;
ray/modules/desktop/xml/main.xml;
ray/modules/desktop/xml/skins.xml;
ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe;
ray/modules/global/inc/cron.inc.php;
ray/modules/global/inc/header.inc.php;

I have it set to 777 currently.

I believe for all the files listed you want them set to 666 file permissions with the exception of ray/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe you want that set to 777.

did you have a previous version installed and are trying to install over it ?

i have the list of file permissions posted if you would like to take a gander at them on this blog.

Are you installing on a "temp" domain name? Like http://35.53.22.63/~youraccout? If so that is the problem... whenever you install like that Dolphin can't see all the files to list them on the "check" screen.. but even though it can't see them it still errors when you click continue...at that point just fix the errors in the pink box and try again.

2 other options to check, i know a friend of mine swore that the permission where set on his FTP client, but when i looked via cpanel they were not, so his ftp was showing something different than what was actually the case.

#2 have you set the chmod via SSH shell access? i did this with 4 sites and one of them threw back an error and set the whole domain to permissions to 0
so i couldnt set them via cpanel either as i was no longer the owner of the account.

this is a dedicated server i am see more using.

I upldated PHP and MySQL to the most recent versions. All errors are gone.

Are there other solutions for this problem? I am also getting the error:

I have checked permisisons on FTP and via cpanel and all seems ok. Have tried it with 666 and 777 but get no further. Looked at the code in install/index.php but it didn't help much (it says "$perms = fileperms($filename);"). Tried uploading the questionable files again and the error still comes up without letting me go any further in the process.

Installed Dolphin 6.1, have HostforWeb shared server so updating the PHP & MySQL versions isn't an option but they are running MySQL version 4.1.22 & PHP4 & 5 are available.

Thanks in advance for any input!

ok, no answer needed now. just bought the installation package and they had it up and running in just a few hours. sorta convinced they might purposely screw with some files to get you to buy the installation but whatever - at least it works now
