    Gantry installation failure

    Posted 13 years 2 days ago
    • Hi - need some help here.

      Fresh install of Joomla 1.6.x
      PHP is version 5.3.3
      Fresh Jomsocial 2.2 installed
      Diretories are all writeable


      I uploded the rt_zephyr package (with gantry) and it failed to install.

      At first, it said it couldn't create the /libraries/gantry directory - so I created it. That solved that.
      Next: It can't copy a CHANGELOG file from one temp directory to another directory... and it just fails the installation.

      What am I supposed to do? This seems a little weak and sloppy. Is there a known solution for this, please?

      thank you,

      Satchi

    • So, basically what you are saying, there are still permission errors in your Joomla dir.
    • Please reply with a direct link to the issue & create a new thread for each new issue.

      The directories are 755. (industry standard) If that is a problem, please let me know. I don't believe this is a permission error.

    • It depends. On some servers, 755 is not enough due to ownership settings. Try 757 on the folders and 646 on the files that needs to be writable.

    • Issue resolved.

      Note for anyone else who runs into this:

      To solve the issue, I had to set some of the folder to 777 (which made me cringe). After the installation, I set them back to 755 and have had no issues so far.

      Thanks for the replies.
