File permissions
Certain files or directories need permissions which allow the web server to alter them.The simple solution is to grant write permission to all on the system (chmod 777). But on a Unix-like system it is safer for an administrator to change the group ownership and permissions so the specific web server user has access.
- kernel/config_inc.php
- /bitweaver/temp/
- /bitweaver/storage/
Installer Checks
When a newly uploaded / extracted bitweaver site is entered, permissions for certain files are checked and problems are reported. Once these have been resolved, you can then go on to the bitweaver installation.System Requirements
System requirements and recommendations are checked by the Installer. Please see bitweaverRequirements for more details.Database Installation
