Proper directory permissions????

[Gregor]

Hello,

Just upgraded www.uisge-beatha.eu to version 1.0.5 Looking at the extension manager, I see the following warning:

WARNING: Insufficient directory permissions to install modules. You may also be experiencing problems with PHP Safe mode. Please ensure that safe mode is disabled, and that file system permissions are sufficient.

For which directory do I have to set which permission. I have set modules to 777.

The local variable for safe_mode is set to:
Directive              Local Value            Master Value
safe_mode              Off                        On

I'm not able to se these variables myself, as I'm not the root.

Hopefully one can help me.

Thanks,
Gregor

For those who have tried everything i.e. set safe mode off, adjusted directory permissions and still have the error DO NOT DESPAIR.

This warning is also given when the admin module cannot find a directory so CHECK the config.php file to ensure the paths to uploads, etc. are correct. An error in any of these will ensure the module reports "Insufficient permission..." - its logical I suppose, because if the directory does not exist then it cannot be written!

Still a different message would be useful.
