Hi jimmychuang, welcome to the forums,
The key to your answer is the "not writable". Give that cache folder write permissions.

Also, what version of WordPress are you using?
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/.../installation/

Requires WordPress Version: 2.2.1 or higher
Compatible up to: 2.4.1

But I didn't see cache older or file under wp-o-matic folder.

I use the newest version WP

The plugin's installation instructions say to unzip to the plugin folder. This should create a wp-o-matic folder (in the plugin folder) with 3 files, cron.php, help.php, and wpomatic.php (in addition to the readme). With them, there should also be an "inc" folder containing tools.class.php and xmlparser.class.php and 3 more folders "admin" - 29 files with yet 2 more folders, "help" - with 3 files and "simplepie" - with 2 files, etc.
But I do not see a "cache" folder with the package. My guess is that if there isn't a folder named "cache" at the location
public_html/personal-loan/wp-content/plugins/wp-o-matic/cache
then the plugin script probably failed to create it before trying to write a file to it.
Try creating the "cache" folder yourself and see if that solves your problem.

Yes, you'll probably need to create the /cache/ folder yourself. You may also want to look into the FeedWordPress plugin which may not have these problems.
