Description
When generating HTML reports in omeka 1.5-dev and omeka 2.0, the generation fails with only a status of 'error' shown.
The database records:
2011-08-17 15:29:16 -0400: Error: Destination directory is not writable: '/var/www/omeka/archive/reports'.
Should probably check permissions and existence on install, and/or show this info to the user

Research direction
Start by reproducing HTML report generation in Omeka 1.5-dev or 2.0 and trace the error reported for the archive/reports destination directory. Check how installation and report generation handle directory existence and writability; done means the condition is handled and the user receives actionable information instead of only an error status.
