Hello

Thank you for your great work.

I was helping my friend uploading Indexhibit but I am not allowed to
Change the writing access in the folder from 755 to 777 and I cant delete the two main folder already uploadet on his server.

When I try it sais:

NOOP

220 BulletProof FTP Server ready ...
USER webs2195
331 Password required for webs2195.
PASS ********
230 User webs2195 logged in.
CWD /
250 CWD command successful. "/" is current directory.
SITE CHMOD 777 scripts

What ftp program are you using?

Cyberduck

Talked to the host company and they say The two main folders are root folders and can´t be deleted........ but I can´t change writing access in these two folders..... so Im stuck.

Any advice??????

Anyone??

Maybe I should be more precise .....

There are two main folder on the servers

1.Config and 1.WWW

Both are read only and therefore I cannot switch the folders to write also.

So Im stuck since I can´t change the Indexhibit folders.

Help please.

How are we supposed to know how your host does things? We don't have any clue what to tell you here.

Sorry your right.

I thought maybe someone had tried stuff like this before and had pointers.

Shutting up now..........

But you've said already that host forbids changing them.

Get a new host?
