Hi,

Am doing an oxwall installation on godaddy.  Trying to upload plugins etc is not working. Its telling me that the user does not have permissions.

Anyone use godaddy? Care to comment and advise?

Thanks,

Matt

I didnt get my ftp sorted but I did get the photo and upload sorted by deleting the ow_userfiles/.htaccess.

The ftp thing is a puzzle....

As it goes, I did all the updates manually, qued em up and it went ok!

Hey Matt, what Host did you use on the FTP attributes form? I mean, was that localhost or IP address?

Hi Michael,

I used the ftp host addy provided by godaddy, but I tried localhost as well, both reported a lack of permissions.

It looks like you have WordPress installed on your website. Where did you put the Oxwall files?

Akeem most probably you have mode_security module enabled, you need to contact provider support team to disable it.

Only just installed oxwall (keep on wanting to call it oxfam) Already 2 errors.
1. ftp access
2. picture upload
fixed the later from suggestion to delete htaccess file (thank You)
I am hosting on godaddy. Should i expect many more problems of incompatibilty with godaddy hosting  ?  or is that about it
I am often surprised that developers dont make there software compatible with the place where most websites are hosted. But I am not a proffesional maybe thats my problem!

I believe you have resolved your issues here: http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/34532?page=1#post-140654

If not please elaborate what errors do you have now. 

We do not recommend to use Godaddy, as their support effectiveness and response time leaves a lot to be desired. 

Their servers most of the times do not meet our server requirements.
