file permissions error using vqmod [fixed, I am dumb]
Didn't realize some folders needed to be 755 for security reasons!
So I went to install the newest vqmod for OpenCart using filezilla and now going to the storefront or the admin panel for the site gives the error message - 'A file permissions error has occurred. Please check the permissions on the script and the directory it is in and try again.' I followed the steps on the video here exactly.
> Folder the shop (and VQMod) is in is set to 777
> Index.php is set to 777
> admin folder is set to 777
> admin/index.php is set to 777
> vqmod folder is set to 777
> vqmod/vqcache folder is set to 777
the vqcache folder is empty, though the instructions under the video suggest there should be new files in it. I'm completely lost, if anyone has any experience troubleshooting this I need all the help I can get!
Edit: I had a backup, for some reason restoring through the control panel on the host site didn't replace the new vqmod files with the old so I took them out of the zip and rewrote using the ftp client but I'm still getting the same error.
Edit 2: Replaced index.php in the root and admin folders with ones from a fresh opencart install and deleted vqmod in order to do a complete fresh install, I am having the same problems.
