Yii + EasyPHP Runtime Path not Writable?

I'm trying to get a Yii program running, but I get the error:

Application runtime path "C:\Program Files\EasyPHP-5.3.8.1\www\project\protected\runtime" is not valid. Please make sure it is a directory writable by the Web server process.

Does this mean I have to change something inside EasyPHP? I've tried adding permissions through directory->properties->security and changing the permissions to allow everything, but that did nothing. I have no idea where to go from here. Any ideas?

Solution

  • That either means the directory doesn't exist or you need to CHMOD it with the right permissions. chmod -R 777 runtime

    Since you're on windows, you shouldn't need to CHMOD anything. Are you absolutely sure that the runtime directory exists?

    Otherwise I would suggest using xampp. I'm running yii on it locally with no problems.
