unable to update discussion block

Permalink
i get this error while trying to update the block. the folders all have 777 permissions.

The following errors occurred when attempting to process your request:

* Unable to backup old package directory to /home/admin/domains/dev3.pixelfishcreative.com/public_html/files/trash

Also wondered how to change the email validation email from address. currently it is concrete5-noreply@...com.?

anyone any ideas??

I found the answer in another thread. Something along the lines of needing to delete all the files within the trash folder through ftp, and also checking the permissions of the folder.

If i come across the thread ill send you a link

I am having this same problem and am unable to resolve it. Everytime I try and upgrade a package I get
Unable to backup old package directory to /var/www/vhosts/...
I am on 5.3.3.1 - any pointers? I've changed permissions of the /trash folder, changed owners, deleted and added, nothing seems to help.
