    Permissions problem

    How do I get past a "...permiss ion denied..." error condition?

    I'm running PHP 5.2.5 with IIS 5.1 on Windows XPPro with all service
    packs and updates. FWIW, this is an intranet-only setup.

    PHP itself seems to be working in that I display the PHPInfo page.

    I have a page that starts off by doing a session_start() . It's
    generating a "Permission denied (13)..." error on the folder where
    it's trying to write the session cookie (or at least I think that's
    what it's trying to do).

    What guidance I've been able to find by Googling, tells me to
    right-click on the folder, select properties and then select the
    "Security" tab. Well, there is no "Security" tab; there is a "General"
    tab, a "Sharing" tab, a "Web Sharing" tab and a "Customize" tab. I've
    poked around on all of those and have not been able to find anything
    that would allow me to change the permissions on that folder.

    I read something that said this permissions stuff has to be set from
    within IIS. They also specified going to certain tabs on certain
    windows (in IIS) - none of which actually exist on my system.

    Can someone possibly point me to some instructions that actually work
    in the environment that I'm working in (as noted above)?

    Thanks

    Try a Windows newsgroup. You'll get better help there.
