cannot install in webroot of my server

Post by zash1958 »

Hi,

I configured the appropriate website and copied the ZIP/PHO on it. Installing from a subfolder is running flawlessly.

But if I try to install the actual release I get the following error:


Fatal Error

Invalid config value for dest - not a directory, or not writable


What the heck I am doing wrong here?

TIA

Uwe

Well, the message is quite obvious. It looks like the process either can't find the dest folder or it's not writable.

Read the txt file that comes with the installer. You can explicitly set the dest folder. Perhaps the installer somehow gets some wrong information.

When you say webroot do you mean your www or public_html folders or the folder holding those..?
