Hope that somebody can help me. The site of a friend keeps getting the errors when requesting the main site http://www.terbraakadministraties.nl/;

Code: Select all

The following directories must be writable by the web server:
tmp/cache
tmp/templates_c

Please correct by executing:
chmod 777 tmp/cache
chmod 777 tmp/templates_c
or the equivilent for your platform before continuing.
When requesting de index.php it give the error;

Code: Select all

Site down for maintenance.
But when requesting an other page on that site there is no problem. For example http://www.terbraakadministraties.nl/home.html

tmp/cache and tmp/templates_c CHMOD to 777 did not resolve the problem
And there is no SITEDOWN in the tmp/cache folder

It seems that the issue is in the server configuration, not CMSMS. This kind of situation tends to happen when the PHP scripts are run under more restrictive server settings meaning that it (or the user under which being run) doesn't have permissions even if 777 or 666 is set.
I would contact your host to see what may be the issue regarding permissions.
