fresh install;permissions denied on install.php; not chmod

[g0b0t]

Warning: main(include/sql_parse.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/user/public_html/coppermine/install.php on line 21

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'include/sql_parse.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/user/public_html/coppermine/install.php on line 21

i have read a number of posts where users were getting this error on a fresh install.
their issue has been the chmod settings.
well, i tried them all.     and nothing, damnit.  :evil:
any other ideas?

thanks.

your include path is set to '.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php' - that's where the script looks for the file 'sql_parse.php', but it isn't there.
If none of the postings about include issues did help, try changing all the include/require statements you encounter errors with: edit install.php and change

Code Select Expand

require('include/sql_parse.php');to

Code Select Expand

require('/home/user/public_html/coppermine/include/sql_parse.php');
You'll have to replace several include/require statement, be warned!

Alternatively, you can change the include path using a .htaccess file if you are running Apache.

Something like:

php_value include_path .:/home/user/public_html/coppermine/include
