 | Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I couldn't find any information in
 | the
 | FAQ or list archives about it.
 | 
 | I finally got upgraded to php 4.2.2, and things are working better. However,
 | test.php tells me PEAR is installed, but not a recent version (I *JUST*
 | downloaded it from www.horde.org/pear).
 | 
 | I get into configuration, change any settings, and click the "generate
 | configuration" button (same thing happens for turba, mnemo, and nag) and I
 | get a
 | message that says "Writing not possible. Copy this code manually to
 | blah/blah/blah/conf.php (OK, I made the "blah"s up :-)

Your web server probably doesn't have permission to write to the config
directories.  I run apache with user/group as www:www so my config directories
are also chown www:www *.  You would substitute the user and group that your
webserver uses.

I hope this helps,

 | I can copy this code into the respective conf.php files, but this obviously
 | shows a problem with my configuration, so I'd like to fix it.
 | 
 | Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
