CHMOD Permissions at Godaddy.com

    Hi everyone!
    I thought it would be a great idea to start using some hosting at Godaddy.com not just storing domains....

    Now to the problem I can´t change the CHMOD code in my FTP program (Cute FTP)

    I assigned permissions in the Godaddy CP to be able to change to 777 in certain directories and files but it wont allow me to...

    And when i log in to my domain with CUTE FTP I am always redirected to a folder named with my user name. why????

    Anyone know how to change this????
    As it is right now I can´t install my new script which is wery boring.....

    / Marcus

    My question is about godaddy.com since I have access to CHMOD on all of my other domains (All not registered at godaddy.com)
    I also use the same program (cute ftp 6.0) to modify my other domains...

    I never had any problems with this before so it must have something to do with godaddy.com

    What hosting pkg did you select with your GoDaddy account?

    Apparently, the .asp version doesn't recognize the chmod command.

    Call godaddy ask their support technicians what the problem is. I have a bunch of servers and taht happens to me all the time. I have to go in as root and chmod manually. But since you can't do that you should call them :)

    I emailed Godaddy support and after that it worked. I guess somethoing just went wrong and they manually fixed it.

    Apart of old thread, this must be a joke since GoDaddy service is noticeable for its lack of support.

    However I can see that never were mentioned the type of hosting service.

    You cannot chmod via FTP if you are hosted on a Windows server that does not work as Linux, but might require enabling write on directories and files.

    I can change chmod easily to 777, I'm using linux shared hosting...
    Their supports are realible IMO, always get answers within an hour or a day...

    If you have ssh acess just run this command in ssh
    chmod filename 777 (777 is just example you can change to whatever you want) :)

    You cannot change the CHMOD settings of the root folder with godaddy if you are a shared plan. They make you upgrade to virtual dedicated which is about 25$/month. Best way is to create another directory and work from there.

    I just used filezilla to change it, just right click on the file and select the option that says "file permission" hope this helps!
