    Hi everybody

    I can’t use the filemanager. I get the message
    Verzeichnisübersicht für:/
    Access denied

    I am Loged in as administrator

      Looks like you need to check the path in the Configuration for the file manager; it looks like it’s trying to access the root of the server, not the root of your webspace. That’s what’s being denied, access to "/". That "/" can be used as a root URL (it would be the same as http://mydomain.com/), not as a root file path (which is more like /home/myname/http/). The file manager needs a full path to your webspace where MODx is installed.
