Topic: Can't access cache directory

When I click the "save changes" button in Administration > Options, I get the following error:

An error was encountered
Error: Unable to write configuration cache file to cache directory. Please make sure PHP has write access to the directory 'cache'.

I double-checked the permissions using both WS_FTP, and the Cpanel file manager. The cache directory is set at 777. And when I installed punbb 1.2 a couple weeks ago I made some changes in the Options and it saved it fine. Another odd thing is that even though I have the Oxygen style picked, the error message is in the Sulphur style.

Any suggestions on the cache problem?
