    • Hello Adib,

      This is usually related to the server. You should have them set as 755 and make sure apache has ownership of it. You can set this via FTP or get your system admin to do it.

      Cheers

    • Hmmm well that is strange then.

      what happens when you try setting the permissions to 777?

      Gantry itself is GPL along with the Quasar template.

      Cheers

      hi there,

      this is a very common joomla bug. you may try to enable your ftp layer under > site > global configuration...

    • Hello I have this problem now. When i did the rocket launcher install everything was perfect. Now I want to edit the template and seen there was an update to gantry so I installed the update. Now I have this error and cannot change anything on the hybrid theme or any new theme I install that uses gantry. Can anyone help me out with this?

    • hi again,

      this is a known joomla bug which seems to appear on certain servers only.

      very often the changes actually do get saved, even if the params.ini says it is unwritable.
      worth to give this a try.

      if it does not work, you may try to enable your ftp layer in the joomla global configuration.

      if this doesn't help as well, then you can try to add some changes to ../administrator/components/com_templates/controller.php

      find below codes:
      // Try to make the params file unwriteable
if (!$ftp['enabled'] && JPath::isOwner($file) && !JPath::setPermissions($file, '0555')) {
      and change to:
      // Try to make the params file unwriteable
if (!$ftp['enabled'] && JPath::isOwner($file) && !JPath::setPermissions($file, '0755')) {
      kat :)
