The following files and directories must be writable for an install. Depending on how your server is set up, this could mean that they must have <b>CHMOD</b> values of 644, 664 or 666 for files, and 755, 775 or 777 for folders the correct chmod required will depend on server configuration, in some cases a wrong chmod will block access to the forum and it will stop running, if you are not sure of the correct value it is recommended to contact your host:

*/cache
*/avatars
</includeonly><noinclude>This template should contain only a list of SMF files and directories. This template is used in a number of places. Please be careful about changing the contents of this template</noinclude>
*/Packages
*/Packages/installed.list
*/Smileys
*/Themes
*/Themes/default/languages/Install.english.php
*agreement.txt
*Settings.php
*Settings_bak.php
 
Once your install is complete the following files/folders should be chmod to not be writable, this will again depend on your server configuration:
 
*/avatars
*/Packages
*/Packages/installed.list
*/Smileys
*/Sources
*/Themes
*/agreement.txt
*Settings.php
*Settings_bak.php
 
Keep in mind that if you are doing some actions in the admin panel like installing packages or putting the forum into maintenance mode some of the above files/folders will need to made writable again before those changes can be done.
 
 
Also keep in mind that chmod is a linux only command and if you are on a windows server you will need to contact your host to have them change any permissions on any files or folders as they can not be changed by the user.
