You can put it anywhere, but the default security restrictions keep you from accessing anything outside of httpdocs. These can easily be changed in the php.ini file or on a per-domain basis in the vhost.conf file. The setting you'd be looking for would be to set open_basedir=none
As far as permissions, you need to 777 the tmp/ directory and subdirectories Hope that helps, Nathan On Nov 3, 9:35 am, "Dave Maharaj" <m...@davemaharaj.com> wrote: > Hey thanks. > > Ok htaccess is there and site is up but cache not writable is next > errors....plenty of those. > > Did some reading and to me it looked like I had np option but to put "cake" > folder in httpdocs?Weird no?
