Hi,

All of the sudden my message board and control panel can't be accessed and show lengthy error messages. I hadn't made any changes and this just happened out of the blue.

When I go to the control panel login screen I get the following error message:

Can't open '/home/pointe/public_html/ubb/cache-ZW6RM756/lock/global.cgi'. Permission was denied - please ask the administrator to check the permissions on that file/directory. The exact error returned by the operating system is: Permission denied

When I go to the message board, I get these error messages:
