Full Story on Permissions Please!
OK I finally got this script running,
but I must say, the amount of permissions you need to set goes WAY beyond what is told in the the readme file!!! Is there a FULL explanation? I still havent got all the features to work, and i know most of the problem is permissions!!! Thanks for any help.
My latest problem is getting the validation scripts to work, so ill guess ill go try setting some more permission again LOL !!
Are there any better instructions floating around somewhere?

The permissions are well stated in the README file IMHO...You have to pay attention to the directories where files are located. Like when the README file shows that you need to change ALL files in the data directory to 666...that means all files, including .txt files.

Yes, actually, pardon me, i do mean the VERIFICATION script not the validater.

It comes up 5000 error when it tries to execute the http.om module - do these directories and files need a special chmod as well?
