Oscommerce installation

[crescent]

I am trying to install it still!
I have wamp, and Smart FTP on my comp.

When I follow the tutorial and try to install oscommerce I upload the:
'catalog' folder
'includes' folder
and go down to the 'configure' box to right click on it. However when I right click on it I am not offered the 'chmod' option but rather just the copy paste open options and not the other extended choice.

Does anyone know why this is happening.
Cheers,
C.

I think SmartFTP is detecting that the PC is windows and not allowing CHMOD. However, if you have local access you can just uncheck Read-Only by Right-Clicking the folder and going to properties.

Thanks for replying David.

I think my problem might be something else as when i went to uncheck the box, I pressed apply and it gave me the option to do all sub folders aswell. I tried both options (applying to this folder only & applying it to all sub folders). It wont however let me 'Apply' it when I come out of this option.

It only lets you press okay or cancel. When I go back in to the folder the default read only is still checked.

Thank you though for taking the time to reply.
