Can someone help? Thanks

Everething work fine. I must setup folder permissions "images" to write.
I apologize for my bad English.

That's fine. We have seen this issue before - particularly with people hosted on GoDaddy

I'm getting this error too. It works fine on my workstation, but when I post it to the server I get this error.

For what its worth I have seen one shopping cart developer note on their NG that they will not provide support period if the cart is hosted by GoDaddy.

You may do a search in this NG for GoDaddy as it appears some have gotten nopCommerce to run using GoDaddy as a host.

May not be worth your while trying to work around some of the issues using GoDaddy as a host if you value you time.

Just my 2c worth.

So has this been resolved for a GoDaddy site ?
I've read about setting permissions for the folder - but I'm not sure how to do this in GoDaddy?
Any answers/help much appreciated.
Thanks

got it sorted now - working well.
just a general comment on GoDaddy - it's pretty simple to get nopCommerce up and running - I estimate you can get everything done in about an hour.
Hosting plans are good - tools are fantastic and availability/response has not been an issue.
I will put together a document of how/what you need to do to get things running if anyone is interested.

This would be very useful Mickey.

We seem to get many people experiencing set up problems on GoDaddy - of course if they used the search in this forum they may find the answer :p

If would like to email me this document that would be great.

Thanks
Ben
