I can't get past the editconfig.php page, I have tried everything, I want to use mysql, but it says We have detected that you configuration file is not writable by PHP. You can use the download button to save your settings to a file that you can upload manually. I cannot get that to work either, how do I change permissions? Thanks so much! ron@remaxron.com
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Most FTP programs will allow you to change the file permissions somehow. Also, if your host has an online control panel like CPanel, you can also change the permissions in the file manager portion of that.
The other way to change the permissions is in the terminal. If you aren't familiar with a terminal then you probably don't want to try it, but the command is:
chmod 777 config.php
--John

Read the readme. If it is on unix the config.php the directory of ./index and a few other files need write permision. try chmodding to 777
