Yes, it should be /home/ose/public_html/pmwiki-2.1.27/wiki.d, with 777 permissions. > Then I type > > -bash-2.05b$ chmod 777 wiki.d > > and that appears to be accepted.

Yes, PmWiki is reporting the wrong directory name here, ignore the leading slashes. I need to fix that message. Double-check that the wiki.d directory has 777 permissions on it. If you execute the command: ls -ld wiki.d you should see something like: drwxrwxrwx 2 ose ose 323584 May 31 08:45 wiki.d Pm _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
