DudeThatsErin Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I'm trying to do a fresh install of IPB4 and I keep getting a "CANNOT_WRITE" error. I don't understand. All directories are 777 already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark H Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Check the topic which Luuuk referenced, but basically the permissions are not set correctly. Usually the error will be related to suPHP/suExec. If your server is using suPHP/suexec you cannot have any file or folder set to 0777. Folders must be set to 0755 and Files must be set to 0644, recursively. Only your hosting company will know if you are using it and, if you are, they will need to recursively adjust the permissions as above.
