Hello Michi
As the error already says, do you have write permission to the .htaccess file in the folder
/home/'user'/'direction1'/'direction2'/silverstripe-v2.2.1/?Please check your permissions for the file and folder/subfolder mentioned.
If you have only read permission change it and reinstall SS.Good luck

I'd like to know an answer to this one too - I've tried changing the permissions on the files/folder via windows and it always reverts to read-only, i've tried to change the Apache config file... still no joy - i'd really like to be able to get SilverStripe up an running but i find myself stuck with the same problem - being new to building and hosting websites isn't helping either... but with a little help i'll get there...
Cheers

I have kind of the same problem. I'm running XAMPP 1.6.6 (Apache 2.2.8, PHP 5.2.5 and MySql 5.0.51) on Vista Ultimate and the Silverstripe version is 2.2.1.
I've checked that I have full permissions to my Silverstripe-directory and all the files in it.
Still the install screen complains:
Unable to detect whether I can write to files. Please ensure C:/xampp/htdocs/ss1/.htaccess is writable.
And the same with "C:/xampp/htdocs/ss1/mysite", "C:/xampp/htdocs/ss1/tutorial" and "C:/xampp/htdocs/ss1/assets".
I've enabled mod_rewrite in Apache and it gives this error message when trying to install:
# ERROR: mod_rewrite not working, redirecting to mod_rewrite test page
I will now try and direct you to rewritetest to troubleshoot mod_rewriteAfter that it loads the rewritetest.php but doesn't output anything.

SilverStripe 2.2.2-rc2 will be out very shortly, and it should fix this problem.
Stay tuned at http://groups.google.com/group/silverstripe-announce

"Administrators" and "SYSTEM" have the "Full Control" permissions.
Who else needs it to satisfy the "is writable" criteria?
i.e. I don't want to go overboard and select "Everyone" if I don't need to.

The user that runs your webserver needs to be able to, at least while you are installing.
