Appgini cant write to this folder please select a folder you have write access to

Post by urichard » 2022-07-21 17:47

Hi,

I'm trying to regenerate my Appgini database code from Appgine into the same folder in htdocs but every time i get "Appgini cant write to this folder please select a folder you have write access to"

Which then makes me to delete the whole folder and redo the whole thing from scratch.

I would really like to use the turtoiseGit and not have to delete the folder the whole time.

I have tried clicking on properties and read-only uncheck but when I open the file properties again it again is checked, I tried going to file properties/security and changing all the securities to administrator full access but still get the same problem, this is very annoying.

What am I doing wrong?

Kind Regards,
Richard

try to generate in a subfolder, use htdocs/app
this way if you want to work on other apps, each are in their location.
See how that works for you, this is what I do.

One more thing, check if you have windows defender ransom ware (tamper) protection on, it could be blocking your access.

this sounds like a permissions issue you can try running sudo chmod 755 or going straight to the directory and changing writing permissions, hope that helps.
