Hi!

The error messages says, that a file cannot be written. Did you check the permissions of your "plugins" directory? It needs to be writable for PHP, i.e. 0777 chmod permissions?

Best regards,
Garvin

I did check that. They are set as writable

EDIT: I just checked the directories within, and they're not writable...is that the problem?

Hi!

And does a "serendipity_event_freetag" directory exist? if it does not exist, there must be a reason why PHP cannot create the directory?

Try this test.php scripT:

Code: Select all

mkdir('serendipity_event_freetag');

save it in your 'plugins' directory and call it via browser, and then see if the directory got created?

Garvin

says it already exists...tried to CHMOD (both through smartFTP and through SSH), and it says operation not permitted.

I'm logged on as the admin

should i SU to the root user?

Hi!

In the spartacus plugin, did you enter a chown/chmod username that spartacus should assign to new downloaded files?

It seems that you entered a username that does not allow PHP to further save to that directory?

Best regards,
Garvin

don't believe i ever specified one.

Should I make it my FTP username for that domain?

EDIT: tried it. no good

I also tried after doing CHMOD as the root user. when i navigate there through SSH there's nothing in the event's directory, is that supposed to be empty?

Hi!

No, Spartacus is supposed to write files into that directory! However, if the permissions don't allow it, spartacus either can't write the required plugin files into there.

What owner and permissions does the directory have?

And what did you configured in chown/chmod in the spartaucs plugin? IF the directory already exists, you cannot just simply try it again, you first need to remove the directory!

HTH,
Garvin

it was originally blank.

then i tried it using my ftp username and the permissions were set to 0777

it didn't work either time though

EDIT: also tried it with "nobody" as the owner

Posted: **Fri Nov 03, 2006 1:18 pm**

Hi!

What owner and permissions does the directory have that was created by spartacus? (serendipity_event_freetag)

(If spartacus does not work out for you, you can download the ZIP files manually from http://spartacus.s9y.org/ and extract them to the dir)

Regards,
Garvin

dawgnet

755 and it wont let me change it to 777 without logging onto the server as root.

when i do change the permissions, it still doesn't install.

I'll reinstall the directories...gotta get to work

Thanks!

so i have the plugins directory set at 0777, and i'm still getting permissions errors when uploading the directory from the spartacus site

Hi Topdawg!

Which permission errors do you get? If the folders are all set to 0777, you shouldn't have a problem?!

Best regards,
GArvin
