    please.. I’m trying to install modx.. but:

    Pre-install validation
    
    Setup has carried out a number of checks to see if everything's ready to start the setup.
    
    Checking PHP version: OK!
    
    Checking if Register_Globals is off: OK!
    
    Checking if sessions are properly configured: OK!
    
    Checking if assets/cache directory exists: OK!
    
    Checking if assets/cache directory is writable: FAILED!
    
    Checking if assets/cache/siteCache.idx.php file is writable: FAILED!
    
    Checking if assets/cache/sitePublishing.idx.php file is writable: FAILED!
    
    Checking if assets/images directory exists: OK!
    
    Checking if assets/images directory is writable: FAILED!
    
    Checking if assets/export directory exists: OK!
    
    Checking if assets/export directory is writable: FAILED!
    
    Checking if manager/includes/config.inc.php exists and is writable: FAILED!
    
    For new Linux/Unix installs, please create a blank file named config.inc.php in the manager/includes/ directory with file permissions set to 0666.
    
    Creating connection to the database: OK!
    
    Checking table prefix `modx_`: OK!
    
    Checking MySQL version: OK!   Your MySQL version is: 5.0.75-0ubuntu10
    
    Checking MySQL for strict sql_mode: OK!
    
    Unfortunately, Setup cannot continue at the moment, due to the above 6 errors. Please correct the errors, and try again. If you need help figuring out how to fix the problems, visit the Operation MODx Forums. 


    Somebody can help me?

    thanks!

    • You need to go to your server and make those folders writable. If it’s a Linux system, that means file permissions of 777 for those folders.
