Installation error I give up

This is strange because It worked last night and I got the success page(unless I was dreaming)...my main problem yesterday was permissions, but I figured it out. This morning I get this:
Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/home/bojdnld/etc/geeklog/config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/bojdnld/public_html/esol/lib-common.php on line 69
I'm 100% sure my path correctly in both config.php and lib-common.php
Lib-common
config
// This should point to the directory where your config.php file resides.
$_CONF['path'] = '/home/bojdnld/etc/geeklog/'; // should end in a slash
// You only need to change this if you moved or renamed the public_html
// directory. In that case, you should specify the complete path to the
// directory (i.e. without the $_CONF['path']) like this:
// $_CONF['path_html'] = '/path/to/your/public_html/';
$_CONF['path_html'] = '/home/bojdnld/public_html/esol/';
Is it a permission error again? why did it work last night?

Thank you so much Dirk. You came to the rescue as usual. My Cpanel says that etc folder permissions are set to 777, but that's not true. When I look at the same folder using WS_FTP the permissions are different. I went ahead and set my etc folder to 777 now it works again. Should I leave it at 777? is it safe?
Thanks again
Thanks again

If you can, change the owner of all of Geeklog's files and directories to the process that's running your server - that would be the safest option, as you should then be able to get away with 700 on the directories.
If you can't: 777 is not a security issue in itself, but it could one day backfire in combination with another security issue ...
bye, Dirk
