Post by: Terrenuit on September 23, 2017, 09:29:44 AM
Hi,
my VM is 3.2.2
it indicated that I need to install my safe path:

as I cannot put the vmfiles outside the Joomla, so only way for me is add the d686037582/htdocs/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/xxxxxxxxxx in some where,
I d'ont know how to do, I need to create a folder (included key and invoices inside ? ), the code xxxxxxxxx is a folder ?
please kindly tell me how to do.

if u can't have it outside the public then u need to make a folder with an obscure name so (hopefully) no one ever can find/guess it

so

xxxxxxxxx  is anything  .. e.g. gfgtreuje567jggdfdghdf

so just create a folder d686037582/htdocs/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/gfgtreuje567jggdfdghdf

then in that folder a folder vmfiles  perms 755

add the path d686037582/htdocs/administrator/components/com_virtuemart/gfgtreuje567jggdfdghdf/vmfiles/ 
in your admin

VM will do the rest

if u upgrade to VM3.2.4 it has a wizard to do this for u

You should use ftp to create the new folder or the file manager in cPanel if you have one.
