Thread: changing permissions

i am trying to set the permission to 644 after ftp the files to ABVFP folder. i right click the file, click properties, but nothing happens. almost looks like a pop up blocker is active. i hold down the control key and try again getting the same results. i shut down virus protection program and get the same results. what else should i try to do. is it certain that the files have to be changed to 644? thanks,

Hi mrmagoo144

Go to CPanel then File Manager

Find the file you want to chmod
click on the file name.

on the right you should see a list
and one should say "Change Permissions"

click on it then a box will open

here you can change the permissions.

I have the old cpanel so it may be
slightly differnet in the new version
hope this helps

Hi, you can also do it via your FTP in BV by right clicking on the file on the server side & selecting properties.

hello Chris; that is how i wanted to do it but not getting the window to pop up. i will try the first option. sounds like that should work.
thanks,
