 * Hi,
 * after installing WP Super Cache I get this error message (I replaced my URL by…):
 * Error: Configuration file /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-content/wp-cache-config.php is missing.
   Please reload the page.
 * Warning! Could not update /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-config.php! WPCACHEHOME must be 
   set in config file.
 * Warning! /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-content/advanced-cache.php does not exist or cannot
   be updated.
 * If it already exists, please delete the file first.
    Make /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-
   content writable using the chmod command through your ftp or server software.(
   chmod 777 /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-content) and refresh this page. This is only a temporary
   measure and you’ll have to make it read only afterwards again. (Change 777 to
   755 in the previous command) Refresh this page to update /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-content/
   advanced-cache.php If that doesn’t work, make sure the file /www/htdocs/[…]/wp-
   content/advanced-cache.php doesn’t exist
 * I am new to WP, so can you please advice how to solve this issue.
 * Thanks
    Paul

 * Hi, first connect to your FTP server and give writable permission (777) to the
   file wp-config.php
