Please sorry to be a pain in the ass Mervyn Some systems will not allow the file to be created, in which case you will have to create the file manually and chmod 0777 or 0755 dependant on your server settings. The file should be called categories.ser So it is a file. In admin Cache path: True uses standard osc DIR_FS_CACHE. False will try to write to catalog root. Choose true to use the standard cache path as set in configuration. False will attempt to write to shop root. Using false attempts to write to the catalog directory.

Hi ok I have set the use cache to true in the admin I realize I have to create a file called categories.se but I dont know where this file has to stored ie what directory (catalog directory) do i just save a new blank file called categories.se and save it in catalog/ or /home/ukpenkicom/public_html/catalog/includes/functions and then set the permissions to be writable. I know your trying to help me coopco and I apologize for my persistence but i know nothing about php at all and the settings within the admin.
