    I copy all files to ftp, then install it , everything goes ok and then i got these two errors:
    Checking if assets/cache/siteCache.idx.php file is writable: Failed!

    Checking if assets/cache/sitePublishing.idx.php file is writable: Failed!
    on ftp i set the chmod on 777 but i still got that error...
    any help pls?

      Make sure the cache folder is 777 ... and depending on how your PHP is set up it might need to be 755 (or some other permission). Also the files technically should be 666 or 644 (or other).

          found out the problem, from some reason total commander changed all characters to small..but now i got another error, probably caused by the hosting or i dunno, i install , wait some time and then it says that the prefix i set is allready user, it adds 41 tables to db..but when i go to the site nothing happens undecided
