Not sure if it is the server or not, but I am not allowed to set the file permissions through my FTP Client (tried FileZilla and SmartFTP) on my config.php file for CMS Frog.
I want to set it at 444. Read and Execute only. But each time I do that and save the settings, it changes is back to 755 as some sort of standard after closing the window.

Tried several other files aswell, but I can not get a file completely disabled from writing.

Hope someone saves my day.

Make sure your FTP program is not showing a cached directory. Try reconnecting to your FTP and see if it is still there. Chmod should work fine in the server, although we need to insist it sometimes.

Do 644 then. Otherwise you'll lock yourself out forever. Btw, 4 is read, 5 is read and execute. Not that PHP files need execute anyway.

644 and the Frog CMS locks everything down because its not 444. Damn frog...

I've turned of cache in SFTP but it looks like it is preventing me from locking myself out from the config file by always setting the file to User: write as a minimum. ^^ It hates me

Lock yourself out forever? You can chmod a file as long as you own it... even if it's previously set to '0000'. So chmodding to 0444 should work fine.

Oh

Well, that's what they (all the hosters and online PHP tutorials) told me back when I was a noob
