For those who wants to know the answer is make sure /Admin permission is at 755 and not 777

Good to hear this is all the problem was but...

The /admin folder should never have been set to 777 to begin with. The installation does not require it or specifically ask for it either temporarily during installation chmod'ing or during reversal.

It happens though, you hit the wrong folder/directory.

Just a couple of thoughts though...If you accidently set the admin to 777 you might consider going over the rest of the folders and files and double checking all permissions.

This might seem like a pain and a little tedious, but if you accidently set one wrong if you are not familiar with the permissions there is a possibility that you might have done another.

It's certainly worth your time.

This script asks for more 777's than I would really like to see, and if you set additional 777's you are basically asking for trouble. If you are going to have a problem or get hit with something often it is a 777 folder. So you don't want to set any more of them to 777 than the script requires.

It's cool I didn't mean anything by it or anything. I've just seen sites and read numerous posts about sites being hacked and having other issues some of which were related to folder permissions. Recently I adjusted a site for someone that had it installed by what I was told a professional. I was asked to look at an issue, and upon logging in by means of ftp I immediately noticed many folders and files set wrong. So it does happen and certainly worth a second peek. Glad that was the only one. Hope this will be the beginning to the end of any issues. Good Luck with your dolphin site and hope to see you around the forums.
