I have followed the DBman readme instructions for setting permissions as follows:

"You should find the following files in the archive and they should have the following permissions

db.cgi (755) -rwxr--r-- "

However, when I CHMOD 755 db.cgi in Hypermart the permissions become set as follows:

-rwxr-xr-x

What can I do to rectify this and is it crucial?

Many thanks

Actually that must be a typo in the README file. The permissions are set correctly.

755 is (rwx-r-x-r-x)

You need to allow executable permission to GROUP and EVERYONE. So, you have it set correctly.
