Hello I am newbie. I'm having a problem installing Magento CE 1.9.3.2 and don't have any idea what's going on. Any help will appreciated. Thanks
I'm running into the exact same error and can't find a solution either.
According to the error message, you either:
- don't have var directory created (if we assume that you have restrictive privileges)
- you have var directory, but the user which is executing PHP doesn't have rights to create var/cache and var/session directories, and to maintain content in them.
Try to change permissions to something less restrictive.
