    Hi!

    I´m trying to install lyceum in directory: public_html/blogg/
    I set up a subdomain in cpanel like this: www.blogg.domain.com (Why do have to type www. first?)

    Then when I try to install lyceum (www.blogg.domain.com/lyceum/wp-admin/install.php) I got this message:
    /tmp must be writable by the webserver.

    I can´t find a folder named tmp, I have tryed to create the folder in wp_admin with permission 777, but it dosen´t work.
    I´m a newbie so, please help me! Maybe the path in config-file is set wrong?

    Thanks in advance
    Gustav

    Hi

    You can get around this problem by setting
    define('USELOGS', true);
    to "false" in your wp-config.php file

    I don't know why this wouldn't work though.
    Where did you try to create the file? What went wrong?
    I assume you're using cpanel for the creation of files?

    Great,

    did you take my suggestion or fix it some other way?

    Yes, I just changed "define('USELOGS', true);" to false and it just fixed it...

    I am having a similar issue, although my error message just says "must be writable by the webserver" with no \tmp in the picture. I have changed "define('USELOGS', true);" to false, and it didn't work. Any ideas?

    At what point do you get this error?

    A number of items must be writable by the server take a took in the readme files etc.
