I have uploaded SMF and CHMOD'd the following files:
attachments
avatars
Packages
Packages/installed.list
Packages/server.list
Smileys
Themes
agreement.txt
Settings.php
Settings_bak.php
install.php
Themes/default/languages/Install.english.php
This didnt work so I just chmod'd everything to +777. However It still shows the FTP Page, But I only have SFTP Access.
Anyone else had this problem, or had no problems with SMF on SourceForge?
Try chmodding them back to see if that makes it work :D
