Hi Denis,

Thanks for that. I host it myself. I did try and set the permissions for all
the directories to 755 but then it comalined about not having rights for all
of them so I set them back to 777.

How do you host your wiki?

I had a strange (to my mind) issue: when I set 777 (666) php
applications reported permission problems.  My web hosting provider
said I should set 755 (644 for files). And it indeed helped, although
being more restrictive. Everything worked fine with these settings.

So I suggest you ask help from your provider, if you do not host the
wiki yourself.
