    Hi, first off thank you for the oportunity to use MODx although I haven’t had the pleasure to see it working on my server quite yet.

    It seems I screwed up... everything was going just fine during the installation, I uploaded everything to the server, then I was following the documetation instructions and messed it up a bit.

    I’m trying to install the "Traditional Revolution Download"

    I browsed to "/setup" and saw a beautiful welcome screen asking to choose a language so I picked "en" and clicked "next" (everthing perfect)

    On the next screen I was to choose a name for the database and some other admin access info (excellent up to here too)

    On this next screen is where I kinda did something dumb, some permisions failed so I went to my FTP software to CHMOD those specific files and folders and when I came back to my setup page instead of clicking on the "Retry" button I clicked the browser go back button without even thinking, by the time I realized what I had done it was too late, I kept getting 403s no matter how I tried to go back to that page, I tried restarting the setup by browsing back to "/setup" but no luck either, I even tried on a different browser but get the same 403

    Any ideas on what I can do to start over again? I would really like to try MODx I’m really hyped.

    My server info:

    Apache version---> 2.2.9 (Unix)
    PHP version---> 5.2.6
    MySQL version---> 5.0.81-community
    Architecture---> i686
    Operating system---> Linux
    Kernel version---> 2.6.18-028stab060.8-ent

    I’m using FireFox 3.0.11

    Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

      Never mind, after I read my own post I thought of checking the CHMODs I had done, silly me tongue

      Thanks anyway.
