Title: Spell Checker Plugin problems Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Spell Checker Plugin problems * [davincim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davincim/) * (@davincim) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/) * I’m having trouble installing this plugin. Following the instructions, I uploaded the plugin to my plugins directory. I created a “spell-plugin” folder and copied all the remaining files into it. I chmod that same folder to 755 and then to 666, but I’m still getting this message: * `Warning: main(/hsphere/local/home/galen5/familywebwatch.com/blog_test/wp-content/ spell-plugin/spellInclude.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/galen5/familywebwatch.com/blog_test/wp-content/plugins/ spell-plugin.php on line 36` * `Warning: main(/hsphere/local/home/galen5/familywebwatch.com/blog_test/wp-content/ spell-plugin/spellInclude.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /hsphere/local/home/galen5/familywebwatch.com/blog_test/wp-content/plugins/ spell-plugin.php on line 36` * `Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '/hsphere/local/home/galen5/familywebwatch. com/blog_test/wp-content/spell-plugin/spellInclude.php' (include_path='.:/usr/ local/lib/php') in /hsphere/local/home/galen5/familywebwatch.com/blog_test/wp- content/plugins/spell-plugin.php on line 36` * What can I do?

If it’s not in `wp-content`, that’s likely the issue. * Thread Starter [davincim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davincim/) * (@davincim) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196102) * I’m such a moron. 😛 * Okay, I moved it to the _correct_ folder this time, but when I access the Options > SpellChecker panel I get a message telling me to chmod the spell-plugin directory to 755, but it is already 755. * Thread Starter [davincim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davincim/) * (@davincim) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196107) * To be clearer, this is the message I’m getting on the panel: * `FATAL: The temporary directory you specified is not writeable from the Apache task. Either select a different temporary directory (like "/tmp") or make the directory you specified writable by the Apache task (chmod 755 the directory).` * `FATAL: You forgot to make the personal dictionary directory writable. Please read the install instructions and chmod this folder to provide write privileges to the Apache task.` * I’m not much on chmod-ing, but I can tell you that even when it is set to 755 it gives me that message. When I change it to 666, it gives me a “permission denied” message instead of the panel. * Any thoughts? * I appreciate your help ColdForged. * [vkaryl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkaryl/) * (@vkaryl) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196109) * Did you check to make sure that any folders INSIDE the spell-plugin folder are also 755 – like the temporary and personal dictionary ones? Sometimes chmod’ing the main folder won’t affect the internal ones. * Thread Starter [davincim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davincim/) * (@davincim) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196113) * I just looked. There are no other folders inside that one. 🙁 * [vkaryl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/vkaryl/) * (@vkaryl) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196116) * Hmm. The docs didn’t tell you to make those folders anywhere? * Thread Starter [davincim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davincim/) * (@davincim) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196118) * Well, as shown above, I missed the instruction on where to put the spell-plugin folder. But I’ve reviewed the instructions a few more times, and I don’t see any other requirement to make another directory, although it does state that I could make one if I wanted to. I just chose not to because it was optional. * [ColdForged](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coldforged/) * (@coldforged) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196120) * I should just kill that warning :). Read [this](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/30452#post-173790) and see if it helps. * Thread Starter [davincim](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davincim/) * (@davincim) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196123) * Thanks again, ColdForged. Changing it to 777 helped get me past the error message. Now I’m off to insert the code to have it show up in my comments form. 🙂 * [ColdForged](https://wordpress.org/support/users/coldforged/) * (@coldforged) * [21 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/spell-checker-plugin-problems/#post-196145) * Good news, glad it’s working for you.
