Hi there,

I just tried updating through my web browser and the site went to a 500 internal server error.

To fix it I had to reset all permission on the site to 755, 777 didn't work for some reason?

I tried updating on my Media Temple install and that worked fine, so I suspect it is with the Hosting.

What kind of things should I look for?

Cheers

Hi!

Some web servers do not allow PHP scripts to have the 777 permission. While this permission value is the most common, it can cause problems on some environments. We are going to add text fields for entering server-specific file and folder permissions to the installer soon.

Meanwhile you can change the permission mask in the config/config.php file. Please find there the FILE_FOLDER_PERMISSIONS parameter and assign the 0755 value to it:

$CONFIG['FILE_FOLDER_PERMISSIONS'] = 0755;

Thank you!
