I am on Unix and seem to meet all requirements. I have sucessfully uploaded everything and was able to go in and configure. When I get to the last page it tells me that I am not secure. I change to proper permissions on the files requested. I had to do the -a in filter to see my hidden .htaccess file. I am able to see it, it is set to 644 and I am still getting the same screen that says it is not done. I have changed my config.php to 644 and my setup folder to 700 (I am unable to set to 0 and it instructs me to use 700 instead)

ON the first page this is the warning I am getting

"Apache is not obeying your .htaccess file. Try entering the following into your web server's httpd.conf file:

Directory /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/btcacrossusa.com/httpdocs/gallery>
AllowOverride Options FileInfo
/Directory"

I have NO CLUE what this means or how to do it. I thought I was a pretty smart chick but after today I am beginning to wonder. I have never had this much trouble implementing a program before in php and I have set up several php forums. If anyone can help me I would be eternally grateful. I am at a loss and have tried everything. At this point I am ready to just delete my files and give up. I have been working on this for hours! HELP! Thanks a bunch!

Don't worry about that, keep going, it's just a warning!

I have to laugh at myself because I was about ready to cuss you out and tell you if you would have read what I wrote, I ALREADY DID THAT!

But then....... I saw where you typed in chmod setup 000 and it hit me, I was doing chmod 0 when I typed the command not 000, it was set to the wrong permission!

So I take it all back, thanks so much for the help. I am now able to view my gallery!!!!!

whew what a long day! :lol:
