WampServer

hiii i want to know how to change the folder mode to chmod 0777 . using wamp 5 server ok thx

CHMOD is only supported on unix/linux OS's not windows. if you are installing a script, and you just an instruction to CHMOD a file, just ignore that part.

yeah. but my folder is read-only when i changed it it will remain back to read-only any help ????

I don't realy understand your question. Do you mean that you want to file to be read only or you don't want it to be?

If you do want it to be read only then it is realy pretty simple. I am not sure if this is the proper way to do it but it works just fine. Go to my computer then click on your local drive(ie C:// or what ever you have) then wamp then www dir . Find the file that you want to be read only then right click on that file and then click properties. Now at the bottom you will see Attributes. Simple click on read only. Cyber may know the proper way of doing this but the way I do it works just fine.

You can also use .htaccess but you will have to ask someone else about that.

Hope that helped. If not, try to post your question a little more clearly

Easiest way is to use any ftp client to cmod whatever you want
Hope this help

WAMP does not have an FTP server, so that would not work. Also, as I said before, CHMOD is not supported on Windows OS's, only Linux/Unix systems.

I understand this point. All *.php files on my remote unix server must have permissions changed from default 644 to 755 by order my of ISP for security reasons. (They don't work otherwise)

Yes this can be done by using, say CuteFTP and logging into the remote server.

But can the change be made at c:/wamp/www prior to uploading?

My OS is Win XP

windows does not support chmod, so even if WAMP had an FTP server, you still can use chmod on windows

Actually a Windows system has less security since it can not CHMOD, u are kinda stuck at 7777 or somethin.

on windows you can use attrib to change a file to read-only and/or hidden. Use windows explorer or the dos prompt.
