Please don't delete your posts make new topics just to try to get a quicker response.

What FTP program are you using, i've seen alot of cases sometimes where you think you CHMOD but it didn't work. Try hitting F5 in the window to refreshe (most ftp's cache). Also look at the log make sure you don't see something like "Permission denied"

Your config.php is missing $cfg['cache_dir'], please check config-sample.php for example.
May the Source be with you!

Thanks.I'll try that.I'm using FileZilla btw.

Added 21 minutes later:

Amm where do I restart?This the code I put in my config.php file:$cfg['cache_dir'] = '/datas/cache/';
Then I got:Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/a5290112/public_html/datas/config.php on line 35.

Specifically what line do you put it on then?
Awesome!

In config-sample.php you can see it at line 72, so somewhere like this:
// ========================
// Directory paths
// Set it to custom if you want to share
// folders among different hosts.
// ========================
$cfg['av_dir'] = '.datas/avatars/';
$cfg['cache_dir'] = './datas/cache';
$cfg['defav_dir'] = 'datas/defaultav/';
May the Source be with you!

How about I copy over what I need from config-sample into my config.php.Tell me where to start and I will hit my target.
Awesome!

Just make a copy and enter any new DB information or things like that into it.
