Make directory writable by php and cache file

[eze102]

Can someone help me with these errors?

Where are you developing? On a local host or on a(n) remote/online host(ing) (which one)?

Can we have more details about the platform (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux...), the LAMP setup (WAMP(SERVER), XAMPP, EasyPHP...), etc.?

The answer is actually in the error message. Your assets directory seems to be locked down for writing. Does that happen only with Modules Manager or throughout your site? If the former, you might want to ask your question in Modules Manager support forum. There was a similar issue a while back. If the latter, have a read at this as well: https://processwire.com/docs/security/file-permissions/

Ok, I changed permissions for assets directory to max (777). The first error message went away (so I guess the directory is PHP writeable now?), but I'm not sure why. I switched it back to 755 and error message is still gone.

The second error message remains. I tried deleting the Modules Manager cache file, but still the same error.

Does the /site/assets/cache/ folder exist?

[eze102]

Yes, it does. It wasn't there when I first looked. Refreshed and it appeared, and Modules Manager started working...

Is it solved then?
