Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted June 21, 20213 yr Hi there, I am following the installation guide but I cannot get past the system check stage because of this file system requirement error (displayed below): The directory /srv/htdocs/community/datastore needs to be writable. Please change the directory's CHMOD to 0777 I have tried changing the CHMOD but this doesn't improve anything and there is no 'datastore' file or folder to be found in the installation pack I downloaded from the invision website. Can you please assist or advise? Many thanks, Anthony

June 21, 20213 yr The folder is created when installing, probably. Create a datastore folder in root (same place of conf_global.php and set the permission to CHMOD 0777. Your best bet would be to submit a support ticket.
June 21, 20213 yr Community Expert Solution This is an issue that we're aware of and are working to fix in the release. In the meantime, please create the /srv/htdocs/community/datastore directory on your server and CHMOD it 0777 After you have done that, you should be able to go back to the installer/upgrader and continue.
