On Unix/Linux, you can change the permissions as follows:

cd path-to-webserver-document-root directory
`cd path-to-webserver-document-root directory
chmod -R 777 application/config
chmod -R 777 application/cache
chmod -R 777 application/logs
chmod -R 777 media/uploads
chmod 777 .htaccess
chmod 777 .htaccess`

The process of configuring file permissions is different for various operating systems. Here are some helpful links about permissions for the Windows (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/308419) and Unix (http://www.washington.edu/computing/unix/permissions.html) operating systems.

* Create the Ushahidi database
Ushahidi stores all its information in a database. You must therefore create this database in order to install Ushahidi. This is done as follows:

mysqladmin -u 'username' -p create 'databasename'
`mysqladmin -u 'username' -p create 'databasename'`

MySQL will prompt for the password for the <username> database password and then create the initial database files. Next, you must log in and set the
database access rights:

mysql -u 'username' -p
`mysql -u 'username' -p`

Again, you will be prompted for the <username> database password. At the MySQL prompt, enter the following command:

GRANT SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, CREATE, DROP, ALTER, INDEX on 'databasename'.* TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENFIFIED BY 'password';
`GRANT SELECT, INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, CREATE, DROP, ALTER, INDEX on 'databasename'.* TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENFIFIED BY 'password';`

Where:
- 'databasename' is the name of your database
