OK, I finally got it working, really weird.  I checked all the permissions and there were ok.  So I went ahead and gave the IUSR account Full Control of the folder.  Tested again and it worked.  I went ahead and removed the Full Control and its still working.  Gues Windows XP just didn't want to put in everything till I said Full Control.  Thanks for the help]]> Tue, 22 Aug 2006 01:21:42 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/upload-not-working_topic21096_post112962.html#112962 https://forums.webwiz.net/upload-not-working_topic21096_post112955.html#112955 Author: WebWiz-Bruce

I have come across this error many times and it is 100% a permissions problem.

When the file/image is initially uploaded it is placed into a temp directory, when the post is submitted it is moved to a permanent place and associated in the database with the post so it can be deleted when the post is deleted.

The line on which you get the error is the line that moves the uploaded file/image to it's new location outside of the temp directory and the error message you have is 'permission denied'. This means that you do not have the correct permissions set on the upload directory.

You need to have read, write, and modify, permissions set on the upload directory that are also inheritable to files and folders within that folder. These need to be set for the IUSR account on your machine.

This is a permissions error, you need to set modify as well as read and write permissions on the upload directory.]]> Mon, 21 Aug 2006 22:44:16 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/upload-not-working_topic21096_post112949.html#112949 https://forums.webwiz.net/upload-not-working_topic21096_post112929.html#112929 Author: joster
