      Did you check to make sure that the folders it’s talking about exist? They are part of the MODx upload. Make sure you don’t have a corrupted download and that you’ve uploaded all the necessary files and that your folders have the correct permissions.

        Looks to me like a permissions problem; the script doesn’t even have read permissions for these, so it can’t find them.

              do you have access to server shell?

              cd /path/to/your/folder
              chmod ugo+rwx -R assets/images/ assets/flash/ assets/media/ assets/export/ assets/files/ assets/cache/
              touch manager/includes/config.inc.php
              chmod ugo+rwx manager/includes/config.inc.php


              don’t close shell yet, after install, do:

              rm -fR install/
              chmod ugo-r manager/includes/config.inc.php
