I'm receiving errors like this, as well. Never had any issues like this with previous versions.

I just happened to have the same problem today. What I did was have two files in my default directory: settings.php and default.settings.php. I set them both to writable and everything worked out fine. I think that somewhere in the documentation it has to change that default.settings.php to settings.php and that's what caused this error. Does that make sense?

I had the same issue, but from what i could understand the default.settings.php file was a backup in case you needed to start again with a fresh settings.php file. I assume it is checked for existence. I put the file back in and all worked well, my site is now running fine, and near completion of it 6.6 upgrade
