Gigi76 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and I'm trying to install Prestashop v1.7.5.1 on Microsoft Windows Server 2019 with: - MySql v.5.6.16.0 - PhpMyAdmin v4.1.9 - PHP v.7.3.3 When I try to install PrestaShop whit command "localhost/install" in the browser appears the error message: We can't start installation :( PrestaShop installation needs to write critical files in the folder var/cache. Please review the permission on your server. Someone has an idea how to fix the error? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBW Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Prestashop is not compatible with PHP 7.3 (yet) - downgrade your PHP version - anyway this might not solve your permission issue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, initially I had installed PHP v. 5.3 but at the beginning of the PrestaShop installation there were two problems: 1) PrestaShop requires at least PHP or newer version. To install PrestaShop you need to update your version oh PHP. 2) PrestaShop installation needs to write critical files in the folder var / cache. Please review the permission on your server. After I installed PHP v.7.3.3 the first problem was solved, but the second one remains. Which version of PHP do you recommend to install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which version of PHP do you recommend to install? Latest PS version (PS 1.7.5.1) requires PHP 5.6 or PHP 7.0 or PHP 7.1 or PHP 7.2 But indeed this will not solve your permissions issue. I dont know how IIS works but you need to allow your web server user to read and write files in this folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gigi76 Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Hi, I solved the problem by changing the user permissions "USER" in the CACHE folder (VAR subfolder) giving it complete control. Kind regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
