Topic: Unable to install Showkase [SOLVED]
Hi,
If I may tag onto this thread, since this seems to have been resolved. I am brand new to Showkase. I have not been able to install it on my site. I am currently receiving the following error: "Check permissions for site folder – cannot create data folder _data" I have attempted to modify the read/write permissions for folders on the site via Filezilla, but with no luck. It returns a "command not understood" when attempting to change permissions.
I ran the Server Compatibility test and it passes the Basic Tests. It, however, fails the file tests with the messages as shown in the code snippet below. This seems to be pointing to a permissions issue too, though I'm not very knowledgeable about this stuff. Would I need to contact my host about changing these permissions? I have been able to manually upload and add/delete any folders in the past with no troubles.
Thanks!

Warning: a base directory restriction is in effect on your server. This may cause problems reading and writing files (open_basedir = E:/Inetpub/vhosts/adamandalana.com\;C:\Windows\Temp\).
The test program will now carry-out a few file operations. If these produce any error messages then you should check the permissions on the ‘sktest’ folder and all of its contents and then run the test program again. See the help document for information on file permissions.
