Hi all, hope you can help.

I get the error,

CODE
Movable Type was unable to locate your 'mt-static' directory.
Please configure the 'StaticFilePath' configuration setting in your mt-config.cgi file,
and create a writable 'support' directory underneath your 'mt-static' directory.


However http://www.mydomain.com/mt-static returns "mt-static - OK"
and the StaticFilePath is correct and remains unchanged.

Also when trying to create an entry, or any task that requires a mkdir or some other command requiring root, I get:

CODE
Error making path '/var/www/..../httpdocs/blogtitle/2008/10':
mkdir /var/www/..../httpdocs/blogtitle/:
Permission denied at lib/MT/FileMgr/Local.pm line 107


Also may I note that my movable type installation was working fine until suddenly I get these permission errors. Nothing has changed on the server/in MT settings ohmy.gif

Thanks
