It is a permissions problem.  The slimserver user cannot create a new  
folder in the root folder. At some point, it would seem that you ran  
slimserver as root.  This isn't recommended and can cause problems  
like the one you are seeing.  If you are starting slimserver.pl  
manually, then try the --cachedir command line arg.

First, make yourself a cache folder that is readable by the slimserver user:
mkdir /var/cache/slimserver
chown slimserver:slimserver /var/cache/slimserver
chmod ag+rwX /var/cache/slimserver

Then run slimserver:
slimserver.pl --cachedir /var/cache/slimserver


You could also delete the slimserver.pref file that you have now, and  
let the server set up a new default location (slimserver home dir, or  
/usr/local/slimserver/cache depending on setup)

These are just a couple of suggestions out of many that can work.  If  
you have any trouble, let us know.
