Re: Need to move cache folder to another directory (4 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
Thank you for the response!
I've tried to install PunBB directly in the "cgi-bin" directory, but it give some problems also as PunBB doesn't understand the Base URL when the directory includes a "-" in the path name. If i change "cgi-bin" to "cgi%2Dbin" in the database and in the "cache_config.php" it works fine - That is until i update settings in "Admin -> Options". Then the Base URL will default back to "cgi-bin" as it translate "cgi%2Dbin" on submit.
I could manually update settings every time i need to update settings, but that would be a chore!!!!!
I think i need to give the owners some more grief to get them to change host

Topic: Need to move cache folder to another directory (4 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 troubleshooting)
I maybe have a strange request;
The problem is the host I'm installing PunBB on won't allow write access to the "normal" web directory - Every file or folder i want to write to has to be in the web servers cgi-bin directory.
Therefore i want to move the cache folder to the cgi-bin directory! The question is what i need to change to allow PunBB to write to the cache folder if moved to the cgi-bin directory?
And is there other files or folders there need to be moved to the cgi-bin directory for PunBB to function?
And no, i can't change host as i'm not the owner of the site and has nothing to say in the matter
