To resolve this issue give TimeTrex write permissions to the directories mentioned in the error message.

I've tried. The directories aren't to be found. I have tried creating them and giving them the permissions in about every location I can think of (root/ , cellcommonline.com/timetrex/ , cellcommonline.com/ ). Nothing seems to work.
The installation path is cellcommonline.com/timetrex/interface/install/install.php. The error is the same as above. Any suggestions on where these directories should be located?
Thanks

The full directory name is displayed in the error message, ie:
/tmp/timetrex
If you continue to have problems creating the directories, I may suggest trying our free cloud hosted product where no software installation is necessary:

Hi
I am also encountering this issue. I have trying to install TimeTrex on my webhost which is a shared linux host with my hosting provider.
Thanks
Peter

TimeTrex is not supported in a shared web-hosting environment.
Please read this FAQ post for more information:

Best way to fix this problem. Create 3 folders in your timetrex directory, /tmp, /log, /cache. Then set permissions for all 3 to 777.
Then run the setup. When the error for the not writable shows up. On the bottom of the page there is, Your TimeTrex configuration file (timetrex.ini.php) is located at: /homepages/1/d123456789/htdocs/yourfolders/timetrex/includes/../timetrex.ini.php.
Copy /homepages/1/d123456789/htdocs/yourfolders/timetrex/ and then open the timetrex.php.ini for editing.
Locate - log = /var/log/timetrex on about line 20, then change to, log = /homepages/1/d123456789/htdocs/yourfolders/timetrex/log
next locate - storage = /var/timetrex/storage on about line 26, then change to, log = /homepages/1/d123456789/htdocs/yourfolders/timetrex/tmp
finally locate - dir = /tmp/timetrex on about line 73, then change to, log = /homepages/1/d123456789/htdocs/yourfolders/timetrex/cache
save the file.
Click Re-Check to check if the dir are readable.
If the dir are readable you may still see
Warning: PHP CLI requirements failed while executing
"/usr/bin/php
but you should be able to click next to install.
But if you see
Memory Limit: Warning: 120M (Set this to 128M or higher)
and it won't let you install
the fix is to
create a php.ini file in /timetrex/interface/install
next open the file to edit and enter memory_limit: 128M
save the file
then click Re-Check to see if the next button is clickable to install.
