Parent directory does not allow write...

[Rookie]

Hi,
When I try to create a new domain I have an error saying:

" Parent directory does not allow write, or one of the directories didn't allow search (execution) permission ".

This is urgent and any help would be much appreciated

Thank you

The permissions are wrong on one of the directories above where it is trying to create the directories for the domain. Run the set_permissions.sh script.

According to http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=27949, the following command would help (it did for me).

cd /usr/local/directadmin/scripts
./set_permissions.sh all

Run the set_permissions.sh script

Sorry... But how do i do that?

There must be an echo in here.

Search the forum and knowledgebase for "set_permissions.sh" I am not going to search it for you and I cannot remember every single detail.
