I'm getting this warning

Warning: mkdir(): Permission denied in boost_mkdir() (line 1310....

I cant work out where it's trying to make the dir so I can fix the permissions and from what I can see the permissions are 777 for all the folders in the files folder. so where i boost trying to make the dir?

It could be a directory under the cache directory.

Check your boost settings for the name / path of the directory to use for the cache dir, and change all underlying directories to the right permission.

Standard warning:

Unless you're on your own server, I wouldn't use 777. If you do, anyone on your machine can go change a cached file to display whatever content they like on your site (same warning goes for any other directory in your web root).

The parent directory needs execute permission, you should test creating with your web users before make Drupal work.
