In the Overview I get: Status: Not enabled Filesystem: Not writeable Redis: Reachable Which part do I need to make writeable? The whole /wp-content folder ? /wp-content/cache ?

That gives a critical error. * Thread Starter [reinout_b](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reinout_b/) * (@reinout_b) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filesystem-not-writeable/#post-16891425) * Enabling the plugin with wp-cli, also gives a critical error. * Thread Starter [reinout_b](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reinout_b/) * (@reinout_b) * [2 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/filesystem-not-writeable/#post-16891627) * ```wp-block-code wp redis update-dropin did something new... but still : Filesystem: Not writeable Filesystem: Object cache file doesn’t exist.
