Yeah but when i do ignore that every time i try to use any administration options it says premature script headings,
and my permissions are clearly set correctly,

(reply to the other guy,,,,,,,,,i use Unix if thats what u mean)

I Recently downloaded and installed Xoops,
i installed it fine, and all that, but the problem i cant get past is the error messages
it asks me to delte the install folder, done and fine no problem
then it says that mainfile.php is writable by the server
and to change the permissoins, and i done that, but i still cant get past it,
,Any Suggestions
the error message i get is
WARNING: File /home/www/myhost/xoops/html/mainfile.php is writeable by the server.
