Hi,

can you give the web server user the permissions to your owncloud directory?

Hi,

the permissions are now 755 to the whole directory, but the error log is still full with this error.
I searched and found out that there is a problem with symlinks of picofeed, but I didn't understand what I have to do to solve the problem.

Thanks for your help.

Best regard

I have the same problem here
