What are permissions and how do I set them?

To make a script work then you must make the script executable, you do this by setting the file permissions of the script. A cgi script should normally be given the following permissions:-

755
owner=read/write/execute
group=read/execute
public=read/execute

To learn how to set permissions using FTP then please visit our FTP guide. You may also change the file permissions using the built-in File Manager. You can access the File Manager from your control panel.
