      Hi Daniel,

      Does the index folder have enough write permissions?

      Questions in case you need more help:
      Which PGV version do you use? Index or SQL mode?

      Regards,

      Roland

      Is your site accessible via the internet? If so, can you create a temporary user for me?

      I will check out your settings and see what is wrong.

      Regards,

      Unfortunately, by now, i can't open the site and receive this message.
      I'm not able to create an user.

      The URL is http://durand-amd.net/phpGedview/

      Hi Daniel,

      As you said, you can't open the site, neither can I. What I am more interested in knowing is how you can get the error if the site doesn't come up.

      You can contact me directly via MSN by adding rdalmulder at hotmail dot com to your list.

      I believe that there is currently no files in that folder, if there are I would like to know the filesize of index.php.

      Regards,

      Roland

      http://durand-amd.net/phpGedview/ does not work for me neither, however changing the v in view to View (capitol) seems top work however that gives me a Fatal error: Failed opening required './index/anc_claude_durand_php.ged_conf.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /usr/home/www/caa00766/home/html/phpGedView/session.php on line 193

      Was the Index folder relocated?

      The index folder is in the standard location but the file anc_claude_durand_php.ged_conf.php is not there, hence the error.

      Asked to try with a shorter filename and see what happens.

      Regards,

      Roland

      Daniel,
      Setting permissions to 777 is ok for quick troubleshooting, but this is not a solution!

      Too often in the past it was recommended in these forums that this be done, and its really propagating poor security practices.  (Note:  Not that Roland suggested it here, the user came straight back with a 777)

      Unfortunately, there's never a followup to verify the user has reset the permissions to something more proper.

      For example, I have my index set to 770.  ***World never requires access, and should never be granted any access***  However, I've set the index's group to a common group my wife and I (and the web service) have access to via samba.

      For IIS users, the IUSR_servername account should have any access removed from the index directory(under a default IIS configuration).
