UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 7 Development How Do I? If at first you don't success try try try installing again

Ok... 6.05 worked fine but 6.10 isn't... i know what i'm doing now i think i just have one question...

"1. Upload all files in the "cgi-bin" folder of the zip file into the directory you will be using for your UBB(tm) CGI files. Permissions for all of these files and your CGI directory must be set to 755 (-rwxr-xr-x)."

Question: Does this mean i upload the modules folder. And if i do Do i set the permissions on the files within the Modules Folder to 755 or leave that at default...

Yes, upload the folder named Modules, and don't change the case of it (don't rename it to modules). You will upload it into your cgi folder, and you don't need to set any permissions on it.

ok... thanks... Also i was wondering... some of these files have to be set at 777 but my host says 755... should i set them to 777 or 755

Your host says 755 to give what permissions?

On most typical server configs, 755 will do a rwxr-xr-x, whereas a 777 will set the permissions to rwxrwxrwx. r stands for read, w stands for write, and x stands for execute. The first block of three letters is owner, the second is group, and the third is other.

A dash (-) in between letters means that the attribute for that function is disabled. In the 755 example, the owner can rwx, the group can rx, and others can rx.
