How to get write permission for php scripts on a windows 2003 server.
I have a Windows 2003 server with php4.0 and IIS V.6 and I am trying to get write permissions for a php script and nothing I am doing is working. I have tryed giving write permission to isuer for the folder, the whole site, and even the entire computer, but nothing works. Anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong?

I am useing ISAPI php, I had tried giving permision to the group. A friend found the solution for me. I was only issueing the permission through the IIS manager, I also had to go into windows explorer and issue it dirrectly to the folder. What a pain you'd think microsoft would make that happen automatically.

I would like to reward you for your effort especially since I was delayed in getting back to you. But I don't think its fair to give you a excellent/good grade when you didn't have the answer. So pehaps you can give me a clue on another minor issue that has arrisen. I have to use the php.exe file and the server set to execute scripts and exe to get php to work. It would be better, and from what I know should work, to have the dll file for interpretation and execute scripts only as the setting. Anby idea why I can't use the dll file instead of the exe file?

Try giving write permissions to the IIS_WPG group on the target folder.
