Permission error and missing file during installation about pockethold HOT 4 CLOSED

Thank you so much for this!
I had set both installer.php and all files in the "pockethold" directory permissions to 777, however I was still getting this error, creating the file and setting permissions for it fixed it.

Perhaps the developers should have a look at this?

EDIT:
Turns out that, if a log/ajax.log file is present in the Pockethold directory, even without setting permissions, the installer works (at least for me).
Does it work for anyone else without setting the permissions?

One should never use 777 as permission on files/folders on a publicly facing web server. Alas, something is blocking Ajax.log from being created. I am looking into it, but it would be nice if anyone had a php error log from a case this happens.

@PCTipsGR Yes, this fixes the issue

Here is an excerpt from the file error_log from a fresh install, where the same issue was encountered.

[11-Jul-2019 22:46:39 Europe/Berlin] PHP Warning: file_put_contents(/public_html/pockethold/log/ajax.log): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /public_html/pockethold/classes/pockethold.class.php on line 41
Full error_log

Manually creating the directory /log/ containing the file ajax.log solved the issue.
