The Drupal installer requires write permissions to ./sites/default/settings.php

you've answered your own question? That file is read-only - you need to add write permissions.

Hi Mano,

You can usually use your FTP client (I like FileZilla) to change the permissions on the file.

Check both the file (try setting to 644, or rw-r--r--) and if that doesn't work try 666 or rw-rw-rw-

You might need to check the permissions on the directory as well. When you finished setting it up the first choice for permissions is:

default directory - r-x------
settings.php - r--------

If your host doesn't like that you might need:

default r-xr-xr-x
settings.php r--r--r--
