I guess we do not have the right to access /url folder in a shared server.

If you can't install in /home folder, you may be able to install in DH then :(

a reply of dh support
Yeah, that's a standard permissions issue. When you run that ./configure
you'll need to specify a directory that your user owns. So you'd do
something like:


./configure --prefix=/home/frony/aspell


That way when everything gets compiled, the files will be copied to
/home/frony/aspell instead of /usr/lib (which is not owned by your user).
Just let me know if there's anything else I can help you with!



Thanks!

Basically, support is telling you that your user does not have the required permissions to compile/install the package where you are trying to compile/install it, you will need to specify a path to a directory where you do have the required permissions.

The wiki article linked below may be of interest to you...

Well, to simplify, you are sharing your server with potentially hundreds of other users, if all users had the ability to compile and/or install packages anywhere in the file system, it would soon become chaotic and I doubt things would work for very long.

For this reason, your user only has WRITE permissions inside your home-directory, any packages you install must be installed somewhere within your users home-directory.

I am not familiar with the procedure for installing dictionaries for aspell, but have you tried...

./configure --prefix=/home/frony/aspell-en0.60.3

As recommended by DreamHost support?
