    Devin,

    These commands are the output from FTP which most certainly isn’t what’s needed here. Can you ssh into the server?

      You lost me.. =\

      What’s SSH?

      ( Damn, I feel really retarded all the sudden.. e.e )


      Is that the actual host allowing you access into your site?

        SSH is a protocol for logging into your server via a shell (command line) interface. If you’re not familiar with doing this, then you may also be able to set permissions using your FTP program (I do this all the time). How did you set your permissions when you installed MODx?

        The error you’re receiving says that the cache folder does not exist on your server. If you uploaded it, then it should exist. You should also be able to view a listing of the assets directory via your FTP program and see if the cache folder exists.

        If it does exist, and it does have the correct permissions, but you can’t open it, then you probably should contact your server admins because that to me would indicate disk or permission corruption.

          Thanks Zap. You’ve actually help me some. I’ll go hash it out with my host.

          This whole time I’m getting a run around. Jesus Christ. Now you’ve sown my eyes shut..

            2. The permissions on some of the folders or files are 777 or 666. If this is the case, change them to either 755 or 644 in Cpanel’s File Manager (or using your local FTP client).

            3. The files and/or folders are not owned by you. Certain applications having been run under php as an apache module may have files owned by the apache user of nobody. An indication that you don’t own the files would be if you are unable to change their file permissions. To correct this, please contact support provide your username and the last 4 digits of your credit card on file with us for ownership verification (no charges apply) and provide the location of the folder or files that need to have your ownership.


            Lol. I’m on it, thanks guys.

              Umm... are you sending those commands to your FTP server by a FTP client?

              EDIT: Oh, nevermind this post, did not see the latest replies

                ls -l is a shell command but it looks like you are using ftp or sftp.

                  If your server is running phpsuexec or suphp, the maximum chmod values are 644 for files and 755 fro directories. You can get more information about this here.

                    I was just looking for info on that possibility myself... You’re too quick for me. This is where people providing a complete and clear description of their setup makes all the difference.

                      Make sure you let everyone know that this stuff’s Case Sensitive... rolleyes

                      When I uploaded the files they were switched to sitecache.idx.php instead of siteCache.idx.php

                      Go figure.
