is it possible your webhost, like so many, run processes that change owner of all files? If this is the case then it is possible that the owner of the cache files, which is the php process, is no longer the owner of the files, i.e. the webhost sets the file to be owned by your ftp user. Since the cache files are restricted to disallow access by anyone other than the php process, a simple change to owner would render them unreadable and permission denied errors would occur.

the problem is that your php process does not have permission to write to those directories. The solution is for you to configure your webserver to allow that.

Hi There,
I'm on
joomla 1.0.12
SMF 1.1.1
com_smf 2.0.2
I have made sure the cache and db was writable.
I have cleared all cache in the db. But i am still getting these errors intermittently.
Warning: opendir(/home/dionysus/public_html/administrator/components/com_smf/cache/db/cache_5/) [function.opendir]: failed to open dir: Permission denied in /home/dionysus/public_html/administrator/components/com_smf/includes/Lite.php on line 611

this can only happen if you are manually changing permissions or your host is changing ownership of files. The process that creates those directories is the same process trying to read them. If they permissions have changed that is why you get the error message.

Thanks for the reply.
Do I have to e-mail my webhost tech support for this?
Or what is the solution?
Thank you!!

you can change the owner of the files back to the same username that php runs as.

My Webhost response:
Ownership changed to nobody on all folders in the cache/db directory. Looks like that's what their solution suggests.
Would this do the trick??? Since this happens intermittently, i can't easily duplicate the error

I'm not sure you understood me. These files are created by the php process and should never be changed. I think the problem you are having is that they were changed. Is that what your webhost is saying? Are they saying that they changed the file ownership?
