it's always good to post the version you are using ...

Ned, the error you're getting comes from Spartacus. You need to have your plugins-directory writable by the Webserver so that spartacus can work.

It's still much work in progress and expermental.

Maybe add a friendly error explaining the problem and how to fix it? Checking if the plugin directory is not writeable by the webserver should be fairly simple.

Spartacus is a work-in-progress, so yes - we will definitely add something like this.

However currently we have no place where a plugin could report this easily, so we cannot add a message in there instantly - we first need to create a room for this message.

I'm using 8.2 and having the same problem as the first poster, and my plug-ins directory is set to 777. For good measure, I also set plugins.inc.php to 777, and double-checked that there were no blank lines at the bottom of it. Any suggestions?

There's a bug in properly handling plugins which contain more than one event plugin. The printerfriendly/quotemarkup plugins is an example of this - only 1 or 2 other plugins use the same method.

It needs fixing.
