CHMOD Problem on DirectAdmin

[sitemaze]

I've been building sites since 2004 using various tools. GS is the new one I'm falling in love with.

Yesterday I installed it on Cpanel server - no issue

Today trying to install it on DirectAdmin server - now having problem. I'm getting following error on installation

Code:

Unable to continue: Unable to write the configuration file. CHMOD 755 or 777 the /data, /backups folders & sub-folders and retry.
GetSimple Installation

All the folders have correct permission setup (755) I even tried after changing them to 777... still no luck

Try including this as the first line in your htaccess file:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .php .htm

Some servers requirer it.

Thanks for the idea, but that doesn't work

There is no .htacess file - so added that code to temp.htaccess file
Created new .htacess file

Still no luck

Elaborate more on your installation method.
I feel this is related with file owner, or specific hosting settings where apps aren't being run with user privileges.

How about manual installation (uploading files through ftp) or trying on a different webhost ?
