Correct spelling, explanation: successful is an adjective and it consists of two elements: the root (success) and the suffix (-ful). You can’t change the spelling of any of these parts. The noun success must be spelled with the double -c and the double -s and the ending -ful need to be spelled with just one -l. Full with two -l letters is an actual word. Successful is the only correct version and sucessfull is not correct.

Incorrect spelling, explanation: you can’t spell the word successful as sucessfull, because that would be a mistake. This adjective may seem complicated to some English users due to the accumulation of double consonants.
