CHMOD Problems - Request help

Freakish_05 · 6 Apr 2007 at 08:34

Hi all.

Got a rather annoying problem with FileZilla. I'm connecting to my webserver which is win2k with FileZilla server and it just won't let me CHMOD some rather important install scripts. It comes back with an error

Code:

504 Command not implemented for that parameter

.
I've also tried running a php script with the CHMOD command but that doesn't work either!

Please help!

This is what I've tried:

Code:

<?php chmod("dba.php, 0777") ?>

Code:

<?php chmod("dba.php, 777") ?>

Code:

<?php chmod("./dba.php, 0777") ?>

None have worked

Am I missing something here? It sounds like you're trying to chmod a file on a Windows server, surely chmod is unix only?

Chmod no workie on Windows unfortunately, so afaik you can't adjust file permissions over FTP

God I'm so n00b.

I'll be blaming Coolrunrs crappy code in his F@H stats system then!

Thanks for setting me straight guys

You will have to alter the file permissions via the control panel for windows systems.
