Permission Errors

[Kevin]

I am still not able to just upload the folder files to my server and do an install. I have still not discovered which file is causing the permission issues, but when I CHMOD everything to 777 (I know I know... it's not safe) but it is the ONLY way I can install and use GetSimple. Any help on this issue would be great... then I can proceed to creating more themes with it to release.

You know, I've seen other install apps ask that you CHMOD folders to 777 (punBB actually said it when I installed it last night) - there must be a reason some hosts require this... punBB is mature enough of an application that if it didn't need 777, it wouldn't ask for it. just my thought though....

it honestly sounds like the owner/group might be getting screwed up. Is this a self hosted server or through godaddy or something?
