    Hello everybody

    I’m trying to install MODX on my server but encountered one problem.
    On the check site I get this message >>

    Checking if manager/includes/config.inc.php exists and is writable: Failed!

    I went to give the rights to the file but can’t find it.
    The file I have in this folder is

    config_check.inc.php

    There is no

    config.inc.php file there.

    Am I missing a step?
    I checked the original zip file and there is no such a file in the folder manager/includes.

    Can you help me in this issue? Thank you

      Hi,

      you should have a file named config.inc.php.blank in /manager/includes
      You have to rename it in config.inc.php and make it writeable (chmod 777)

      :-)

        Hi and thank you for your quick answer smiley

        I checked again and on my word there is no other config file in this folder.
        The only one I have is

        config_check.inc.php

        I even downloaded the zip file again to be sure.
        No other config file huh

        Is there a possibility to get it somewhere?

          just create a blank config.inc.php to manager/includes/ folder
