CHMOD permissions!

Please help me with this:
Error: Could not write to config.php file. Please, check you have set the correct CHMOD permissions!

I did this:
cd cms_arastta_1_5_0
sudo chmod -R 777 *

PS! To correct your insecure folder and file permission, do:
find -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
find -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;

And if it doesn't work with those permissions, find a new host.

    You need to talk to your host.

    If their setup requires you to set files and folders writable for the world, they suck - and you should find a new host.

    You should never need to set anything higher rights than 644 for files, and 755 for folders (anyway never 777 for files ...).
