restore problem / unable to write to directory

Hi,

I'm having issues restoring my website. I'm transferring my website to an external host (hostica.com) and get the following error when I try to execute the Joomla.Cloner.php script on my backup file

"Connected to webXX.hostica.com, for user xxxxxx, starting transfer...

Unable to write to directory /hsphere/local/home/xxxxx/xxxxx.com/archive_tmp/! Please check that this directory is writeable!"

I FTP into the hostica servers where my home directory and files are, and made sure the permissions on the directories are 777, but still no go!

Hopefully someone can help! aargh!

Kevin

Hi there! Have you tried to change permissions to 777 upon directory /hsphere/local/home/xxxxx/xxxxx.com/archive_tmp/ ?

You could also delete it if it's already there, and try with a fresh install!

Let me know if you have anymore problems! Ovidiu
