Thank you for feedback
I went to system info and there are two are red
| configuration.php | Unwritable |
|---|---|
| public_html/cache (Cache Folder) | Unwritable |
But even when I change cache folder public_html/cache to 777 permission it still remains Unwritable in system info
Hello,
This is a hosting error. Please contact your host to fix ownership / permissions of that folder.
Many thanks
Tony

I have , but I will again
They (hosts) say the ownership is fine and permissions are all writable so they say it is a Joomla thing :-)
Hosts on dedicated server said that they checked ownership and permission and all writable ... they say it is a joomla issue... maybe just my joomla issue , but I would appreciate any answers
Hosts resolved joomla issue in config file !!!

Issue is resolved
I fixed it by updating the cache pathing here: ~'siteroot'/public_html/configuration.php
It was set incorrectly to public_html/cache. Should have been full pathing [/home/'siteroot'/public_html/cache/]
I changed siteroot from what it was ... to not post on here but you can see what was changed before that

Again, not an issue with the core. But an issue with the hosting /Joomla! Setup opposed to a bug.
Can we close this?

So here's how i fixed it (in Joomla 3.9.2)
edit directly configuration.php and put:
public $cache_handler = '';
The permissions on the /cache and /administrator/cache need to be writable.
sudo chmod 777 /var/www/html/myjoomla/administrator/cache
sudo chmod 777 /var/www/html/myjoomla/cache
Hello,
I don't think this is a Joomla! bug but an issue with your setup/configuration.
Go to: Joomla! Admin -> System -> System Information -> folder permissions
Are they all green except configuration.php which should be red?
