I installed 0.2.0
r749 alpha > start installation > welcome to Drake CMS >
license agreement > error!
Error message was: Directories created by the Drake Installer are NOT
WRITABLE.
My solution: CHMOD 777 on INSTALL dir
and content
I know this error from Limbo, which puzzle
many people. I checked the Drake Wiki, but I have only seen a
straight forward installation progress without any failures >
the problem is > if the people searching for a installation
manual, they still having problems.
So please - add a
proper solution to the error page and to the Wiki.
Thanks!
btw - I miss also an information which
folders and/or files should have what for CHMOD.
(I
hope my english is not too terrible)

You should not have to chmod any directories for installation.
Are you trying to install it in a nix environment? Also please
try the latest release which has several bug fixes and changes to
the core and Gladius data base. I have run several test installs
and can not duplicate that error. Any additional information you
can provide is appreciated as well.
P.S. Your english
is excellent!

Hi - I tried the latest version, but with the same results.
#1 I must change the permission of the INSTALL folder to
777
#2 I also had to modify the folders "private",
"modules",... but this will be shown in stage 3 or 4 (I guess),
so I know what is to do.
#3 The next problem was the
GladiusDB > stage 5
I received a lot of errors. So
made a CHMOD 777 on all files under
/www.dmx22.de/admin/classes/
I really don't know if
this has fixed the problem, after restart of stage 5 (before I
renamed the INSTALL folder back to "install") I had no errors,
everthing was sucessful.
Now the website is running
and I will figure out the features.

Do not worry about the messages from Gladius, they are
notifications not errors. Error reporting is cranked up for
testing.
Can you tell me more about your server
please? Is it a local server, hosted, educational institution or
other? Thank you

The wiki should be edited to include error-handling cases; but we
are still at the alpha stage!
About your error: I will
add a more talkative message when the error happens; are you sure
that install and classes directories need write
access? This is VERY strange...I would not bet on it.

The server being used is running PHP in safe mode. I was able to
install Drake with PHP in safe mode when being run on Apache as a
module. Not sure if there are other server configuration issues
here that I have not been able to identify yet but still looking!

I dont think that the CLASSES
directory needs write access - as I understand the Gladius errors
happens only the first time (creation of DB? )
Its a
good question what the INSTALL directory need - but I know, if I
change it to 777, the installation will continue.

Can you please check with the latest version? there should no
more be any kind of error (neither for the DB or the install
folder).
