Hello jobie and welcome,
Did you set permissions during installation on: tmp, backup, includes/confic.inc.php?

Hi
First of all make sure you do set writable permission to tmp/ directory. It's the very important where Smarty compiles its tpl files.
It must be chmodded to 777.

[Simon Gooffin]

np you are welcome. let us know the results

[jobie]

hi no the 777 did not work now trying something else will let you know when solved thanks

Hello jobie,

You could set the permission in the your FTP manager. Run following commands:

chmod 777 tmp
chmod 777 backup
chmod 777 includes/config.inc.php
