Hi John,

Sorry about that. I must have been that I didn't explain myself properly. Here's strike two:

Open the terminal and type:

Last login: Wed Nov 16 09:23:14 on ttyp1
Welcome to Darwin!
littleone:~ johnwillis$ sudo su -
Password:
littleone:~ root# cd /usr/local/
littleone:/usr/local root# chown johnwillis -R lams-1.0.2
littleone:/usr/local root#

in bold are the commands that you need to execute. Also note that instead of {johnwillis} it should be johnwhillis without the curly brackets.

I think the problem must have been that you were running the cd /usr/local and then chown command all in one line... therefore the system returned "-su: cd: /usr/local/chown: No such file or directory", which means that nothing was changed.

Let me know how this goes.

Thanks,

Ernie
