Installing and upgrading help

Again thanks to both of you. I actually just made it work!!!!

FYI: The moodledata folder is in the httpdocs folder and there is no Moodle folder at all.

The issue to complete the install was as I suspected the permissions. I had to call GoDaddy and have them change them 2 times because I started with 755 and that didn't work. Only 757 on the folders would allow the install to finish. Why I do not know? Neither of you are running permissions of 757 on your Moodle/httpdocs folders are you? (scary) I want to change them back to 755 but I will read up on that before I do it.

I went from 2.8.5 to 2.9+ and it was super easy! All because I did everything I needed to do prior to pushing that reload button. Had I not made sure the plugins were correct it probably would not have gone well.

All seems to be working great. It actually was working fine even though I kept getting that screen which is why I just wanted to shut it off. (the error) but this was a much better plan. Now I can add those 500+ users and allow the system to send out emails with auto-generated passwords. I wish I knew more about the self-enrollment to make that happen as well but for now I will just create and enroll using a CSV file.
THANKS AGAIN!

Thanks again for both of your support.
