MySQL error, cant read directory

[qbn720]

Hey guys, I need help. I noticed I cant delete forums anymore under my Admin CP. This is the error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.5:

Invalid SQL:
DELETE FROM access WHERE forumid IN (47,48);

MySQL Error : Can't find file: './thesite_forum2/access.frm' (errno: 13)
Error Number : 1017

So I go over to the maintanace section so that I may repair it and it gives me this error:

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Unable to save result set in /includes/class_core.php on line 363

Database error in vBulletin 3.6.5:

Invalid SQL:

Oddly enough my forums still work perfectly fine. but my admin control is messed up now. I can create forums, but not delete them. I cant repair anymore either. Anyone have any ideas. I'd really appreciate it.

Issue was resolved. Had to do with my host. Thanks anyways. =)

OS Error Code 13: Permission denied
You do not have permission to write to a directory. Most commonly the temporary files directory. Create a directory in your User Home directory on the server and chmod it 777. Another reason could be that the file is really missing.

If this does not resolve the issue then you must contact your host and have them fix your permissions.
