Error messages during initial set up

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have the following error messages while initially setting up passwords:
“Warning: fopen(settings.text) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream:
Permission denied in /home/mysite/public_html/cms-test/cms/settings.php on
line 40”

”Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in
/home/ mysite /public_html/cms-test/cms/settings.php on line 52”

”Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in
/home/ mysite /public_html/cms-test/cms/settings.php on line 53”

I have the same problem here. Is there anyway to fix it?

I suspect this is to do with file/folder permissions.

Ideally, the CMS tries to save your settings in a file called "settings.text" 
in 2
folders above the cms folder, which will normally be outside the web root, so 
not
even browsable by the outside world. If it fails to do this, it tries to save
settings.text in the cms folder.

It seems like it's failing at both in this case. So check that PHP has write
permissions (CHMOD 755 is ideal, but 777 may be necessary!) in the folders I've
mentioned.

Changing permissions work - but only on 777. Can I change it back to 755 after 
the initial setup?

Hi Fran. I can't answer that categorically. It's probably to do with what type 
of
user PHP is set up to be on your server, and that can vary. If you'd care to 
try it
out, please post back to the support forum at
