    During the setup when checking the prerequisites I get the following error message: Cache directory '' does not exists or is not writable!. Can I create a directory cache somewhere? Does anyone have a suggestion on how to correct this error? Thanks

    Seems to be on a Windows System….php-cmdb defines the cache directory based on one of the following environment variables: TMP, TMPDIR, TEMP. If no one is set, the variable cache_dir is empty and the described error occures. So setup the environment variable TMP with an existing directory (e.g. C:/temp) inside your operating system and try cmdb setup again.

    Thank you for your quick reply, but how do you set the environment variable TMP with an existing directory, if you can explain that in a bit more detail i'll be a happy camper.

    Hope. I can explain it….my windows system runs with german…..right klick on "My Computer", select "Properties", tab "extended", button "environment…"…now add a new variable TMP and enter an existing directory as its value. Maybe you have to restart your system.
