can't save custom.css file

Asked by Marco 4 years ago Last activity 4 years ago

Hi,

there is a problem when I try to update the custom.css file, it can't be saved, maybe because of the template update.

0 call to undefined function chown()"

Hi Marco,

but template update doesn't touch custom.css or custom.js, it's a file created by user only. So your suggestions are not true.

please check on forum.joomla.org / google

Tips:

  1. Use FTP tool and set 644 for this file.
  2. If (1) will not help, rename file to custom-2.css
  3. In Joomla Template Override - create a new custom.css file and just copy content from old custom-2 file

Thx. It looks like Server error, I had this same error in all .css files from all templates, also Isis on your site.
I also tried to use Phoca Commander - that is File Manager and I had this same error message. I couldn't find any tips on goolge too.

Please contact with hosting support.

and ask them how to solve "Call to undefined function chown() " problem,
something is missing (server plugin etc.) This time I cannot help more. It's not our code issue for sure.
