The error is: cache directory "/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/jekman_yt/src/../cache" is not writable.

YouTube Downloader makes a cache directory, which it needs to have permissions to write to.

How you give it those permissions is dependent on your local setup in XAMPP - this might help if you're MacOS as the /Applications/ suggests: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9046977/xampp-permissions-on-mac-os-x
