I have my own VPS (Ubuntu 12.04 on Digital Ocean) that I am installing GetSimple onto. My DocumentRoot is /home/username/domain.com/public_html/.
To get past the first page I needed to CHMOD the folders to 777, and not 755. Why did I need to CHMOD them to 777 instead of 755? Because 755 was listed as an option, I assumed that would be okay and I would prefer it to be the case.
The automation failed on creating the .htaccess file in root and renaming temp.gsconfig.php to gsconfig.php. It also was unable to delete /admin/install.php, /admin/setup.php and /admin/update.php. What do I need to do on my server to have these tasks occur automatically? Are there PHP extensions I should have installed?
