I had 2.1 running great! I decided to upgrade to 2.1.1a. I tried the pre-install file, it downloaded the .zip file (full version, I was only using typical) and placed it on the server. I ran the extract and then ran the upgrade tool. Everything seemed to work fine. I tried to go to the gallery and I was receving errors about my modules and permissions on config.php line 89. I decided to download the typical install in .zip format, extract on my PC, then upload via FTP. I am getting mulitple permission errors when trying to upload the files on top of the current version. I have tried changing the permissions to 777 via FTP client and it seems to work. However, the files keep getting permission denied. Any ideas? |

i guess what you currently try is:
http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php/Gallery2:Preinstaller#Switching_from_a_G2_that_has_been_installed_with_the_Pre-Installer_to_a_normal_installation
so you have to use the tool in lib/support/ that comes with 2.1.1 to chmod your complete g2 folder 777.
note that probably, your ftp attempt to chmod to 777 silently fails because you might not be the owner of the folder / file.
doublecheck if the permissions right now are actually 777 or still unchanged.
