GetSimple Setup is so simple and I have rarely had trouble with it. That said, when things go wrong, they really go wrong. I realize from experience that the hosting environment accounts for virtually all the problems.
I am using a host now that employs Apache 2.2 w/PHP 5.3 Fast, CGI. After FTPing the files, running Setup returns more errors than I have ever seen. I am going too actually include the errors in another post to keep from boring all but those who enjoy bloodshed.
Investigating the folder structure shows that - in some cases - folders are created, but the files that should be within them are missing. It looks like a time out occurred and the FTP session bails.
Manually setting the permissions didn't change the errors, although I confess, I didn't check line by line.
I have a question into the hosting company too. Any idea what could be going on here?

php user is not allowed access to stuff ftp user created ?
chmod to 775 recursive and try again ?
dirs should be 755 files should be 644, normally.

I assume you mean /backups and /data.
Which files?

FYI: Just removed the contents of the site and uploaded a fresh set GS of install at files. FileZilla reorts it is uploading 280 files. Files and folders stored on my computer number 396.
In previous attempts I checked some of the errors which indicated files not found and the were, in fact missing.

Which files? I assume
temp.gsconfig.php and
temp.htaccess. Maybe
index.php too?

As long as folders perms are right and writeable install should work fine.

which hoster is it?
What does that hoster's support say to these problems?
Do they have an explanation why so plain simple operations are not allowed?

I used that host (great choice!) with getsimple, works fine, but i hope you realize NFSn is not a beginner friendly host, servers are configured with tight security and you're supposed to be able to login via ssh and perform some maintenance, if i recall correct the suggested method to update a wordress was via a svn switch, so it's by design that, due to serious security setting, many CMS and apps don't work out of the box, even very famous one, especially if you don't know what's needed and how to set permissions. But everything is usually well documented in their knowledge base and their community is willing to help. That said if i recall correct i used to chown -R to web:web and after setup reset to strict permission. By the way, on NFSn there's no free support, there's a competent community and a very large and well written knowledge base, but if one to one support is needed to install a cms that's not free, but you can count on very expert techs. IIRC their default choice is that php should not be able to write and modify files unless explicitly configured to, but that's well documented.

I'm bailing on them. Don't need this when all other hostings sets up GS in about 5 mins. Thanks to all who replied.
