The security instructions say that the BEST security is to have cache (and some other folders) put above the web root.
However on Plesk, when I try to put the cache folder only above the httpdocs so that the path to cache is /var/www/vhosts/domainname/cache
I constantly get the following error
"The Session/SQL Cache Directory entry does not exist"
I have followed the instructions to the letter. I first installed Zencart as normal then made changes in the admin, includes/configure.php and admin/includes/configure.php to give the correct path below the web root, this did not work, i got teh message that the directory did not exist.
Now i'm trying to do it through the installation process and set the path without having to move the cashe file after install, and the message still appears, saying
"The session/SQL Cache Directory does not exist"
Does someone or the Zencart team know how to solve this problem, especially as it's an emphasized security recommendation from Zencart, and not some kind of security solution being implemented out of the blue.
