Your directory on seasidehosting.st looks odd, there are several
database. It seems to be able to create the files now.

The error looks like to be deep inside Magma, so I can't understand
what it means and what it tries to do. From the file-listing it looks
like Magma created some files, I don't know if these files represent a
complete database. Maybe you should ask Chris Muller in the Magma list
what this error means and I could then further investigate if this is
a problem with the restrictions on the file-system of the server.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I am no VM guy and it looks to me the
file primitives and the SecurityPlugin had to be changed to make
#directoryExists: work out of the box. Could well be that there are
other bugs in that area, I only know a few. As one of our famous
Squeak Masters would say: "Fixing. No, this ain't gonna happen." :-/

Cheers,
Lukas
