1. Insufficient directory permissions
eZ publish cannot write to some important directories, without this the setup cannot finish and parts of eZ publish will fail.
The affected directories are: settings settings/siteaccess/admin design

This file in my root folder does not exist! I've downloaded twice to make sure I was on a complete install, What should I do?
-----------------------------------
2. Warning
open_basedir
open_basedir is in use and can give problems running eZ publish due to bugs in some PHP versions.
It's recommended that it is turned off if you experience problems running eZ publish.

My host tells me to add a line of code (flags) in the script.
ex. <?ini_set('clé de la config à changer', 'on ou off');?>
Could someone give me the exact code and which file I am supposed to include this flag?
Thanks for any feedback.

Salut,

1. The folder "settings/siteaccess" is under where you've installed ez.

2. open_basedir

Google will tell you the syntax to to change this setting. Put it into the index.php

This being said, a hosting provider having this option is usualy a bad sign and target cheap and not resources intensive clients. I hope you'll be able to run ez without problem, but I guess you're going to have pb of performance or you won't be able to adjust the memory used by each script and so on.

What's the name of your hosting provider ?

Hello, thanks for your help.
The hosting provider used is www.infomaniak.fr
actually, I am really satisfied so far.

1. The folder "settings/siteaccess" is under where you've installed ez.
OK - Got the permissions bit in order.

2. open_basedir
Ok - placed flag like this:
<?
ini_set('open_basedir', 'off');
?>
But the message is still there.

3. message "Insufficient execution time allowed to install eZ publish"
My provider sais for security reasons it will not change this option and to conforme my scripts. Tried to install anyways but got a fatal errors about 10 seconds maximum for exucution.

Any suggestions?
Thanks
