Otsikko: Arcade problem. Please help.
Kirjoitti: scotty5150 - elokuu 28, 2006, 02:06:35 IP
I've got a small problem...

Upon attempting to install an arcade package to my 1.1 RC3 forum, the package manager tells me "Some of the files the package manager needs to modify are not writable. This needs to be changed by logging into FTP and using it to chmod or create the files and folders. Your FTP information may be temporarily cached for proper operation of the package manager."

Easy enough, right? Nope. I changed the permissions on every file in the arcade mod to writable with my FTP client, but still got the same message.

Any ideas?

What files did you chmod? Also have you tried giving the package manager your FTP information>

I set all files to 777.

The package manager does have my FTP information, as well. However, when I tried changing the "Cleanup Permissions" setting, I was taken to the same screen that displayed the message I posted above.

That's where the arcade pack came from.

Is there a temp directory inside the packages folder (also chmod 777)?

Not that I can see. Every single file and folder in the arcade has been chmod to 777.
