Error Message

• "Editing SKIN DIR not set ("SKIN DIR"). This may be an indication that your config data was not set." - install.php

Probable Cause

safe_mode flag in php's CONF file is on.

Possible Solutions

1. Create a folder in the main upb folder called data_insert_random_characters_here, where insert_random_characters_here can be as random as "7hyjegdsoijhvo4eitj3ovu3089tuvSSTERsf0sfeSETR",
2. Next, create a file called config.php in your main upb folder, be sure to chmod this to 644. Insert the following into config.php:

<?php
define('INSTALLATION_MODE', true, true);
define('UPB_VERSION', '2.0B1', true);
define('DB_DIR', 'data_random_characters', true);
?>

In place of data_random_characters, insert the name of the directory you just created in, and save.

1. Next execute install.php, and it should work normally.
