File and folder permissions test failed

read the readme that came with phpfusion. The screenshot tells you what you did wrong. You need to set the permissions to some of the folder and or files. You need to chmod them with the ftp client.

The readme tells you what to do for the install.

how to do that ?

. Unless you are running PHPFusion on a local server, in most cases you will need to CHMOD the following files and folders to 777:

* administration/db_backups/
* images/
* images/imagelist.js
* images/articles/
* images/avatars/
* images/news/
* images/news_cats/
* images/photoalbum/
* images/photoalbum/submissions/
* forum/attachments/
* config.php

On certain systems (eg. fedora 10, which comes with SELinux in enforcing mode), just setting the files/directories permissions per installation instructions is not enough. This is because SELinux is blocking write access to config.php. setup.php is checking if the file is_writable and the return is false.

After going through the man pages of SELinux, finally find the "right" way to pass the write permissions test, instead of simply disabling SELinux.

# su
# chcon -v -t httpd_sys_content_rw_t /var/www/phpfusion/config.php

where phpfusion is the installed directory. This tells selinux to allow rw on the file.

After a successful setup.php...

#chcon -v --reference=/var/www/phpfusion/setup.php /var/www/phpfusion/config.php

This will reset the file back to the previous setting... no writing.
