[TYPO3-linux] Install on subdomain, directories detected as not writable

Thank you Michael and Janno so very much for the suggestions. I 
contacted my webhost with it and finally got the reply back that they do 
not have SElinux installed on the server.

Unfortunately the only access to the shell I have is through Plesk 
interface as I'm on a shared server.

I have exactly the same problem with Quickstart, Testsite, Dummie Site.  
I also got a brand  new domain on the same server so I don't have to 
deal with a subdomain and there is no difference

My webhost is usually very cooperative and most of the time will adjust 
the settings on the server if explained properly what is required.  At 
this point I have no idea  what to request next.

The setup is at www.justicefordogs.info/phpinfo.php

The following are some of the errors from the error log:

PHP Warning:

I have absolutely no idea how to fix any of the above errors although I 
searched through the archives and through the various forums on the 
Internet and any other suggestion would be greatly appreciated
