Class_index not writable

[markjl]

Hello

 

I got this message following half an hour of running really slow

 

/cache/class_index.php is not writable, please give write permissions (chmod 666) on this file.

 

Then it was just ok again afterwards. Hoster problem?

try to change permissions to this file to 777 (chmod 777)

I don't think it's a hosting issue, access your ftp and check the permissions on the cache folder. try and see if they are at least 755

Dangerous isn't it having files at 777?

I set the cache folder permissions

my hoster said there was irregularly high traffic on their network this morning.

 

Things seem generally not fast enough so I was wondering if I need a dedicated server ???

well, it isn't good to setup permissions to 777, it's only for test purposes, we will see then if the problems is related to permissions, or to something else.

I have the same problem.

 

But when i set the file with the correct permission (also 666 and 777) after some time it return in 664 mode.

It appear that when the system rewrite it, it do with the 664 permission.

This is likely a server configuration issue, where files written using a php file called from a URL (In this case, when you install a new module that uses the override folder, class_index.php get regenerated), they are not using the proper permissions / owner / group.
