Permission error

Burian · 01-11-2005, 05:25 PM

I had apache working with NO-IP. Then I tried to install phpMyAdmin and all ther file permissions are messed up. They can only be acessed by the root and the files for apache and noip don't work since I am unable to view them on the internet. Also all my files on my computer are unable to be edited. I have tried some chmod commands, but to no avail. I found some more which I am about to try.

Can anyone help me with this problem????

but nothing happened. What commands should I be running to fix my permission problem.
