As your web server does not run as root you have taken away write permission to those directories. Change the permissions to 0777 - as long as the box is otherwise secure (i.e. not shared)

Hi,
I have the same problem with version 3.9.3
It was working fine but one day it started throwing this error. I checked moodledata permissions and they are correct. I deleted the cache and localcache folders. It recreates them but the problem persists. Any idea where to look?
Thanks

This error occurs when PHP cannot read muc/config.php in Moodledata. You can delete this file, it will be generated automatically, but make sure the web server can read and write to the muc folder (and all files and folders in Moodledata).

On my CentOS server PHP is run as the user account apache so that's the user I make owner of Moodledata, for example:

# chown -R apache. moodledata

Thank you very much Leon, I finally restored a backup and I adjusted the permissions. It must have been a matter of permits.
Greetings
