File Permission

Got this error as I tries to run Powerstore wizard on the first check run "Files and directories cannot be created. Verify the powerstore directory has write permissions on your server".

you need to edit the permisions on the power store directory on the server to allow read and write access.


If you uploaded through Dreamweaver, set the Dreamweaver files panel tpo remote view. Then right click the PowerStore fodler and select Set Permisions.

Set the permisions to read and write for all three, and add execute to the owner.

I am still having the same problem even after I did what you suggested. I'm running windows 7. Could this be that the windows 7 security features are the cause for this situation. Need help asap. If u might want to call me, here is my contact; 646-457-7025

Sometimes Dreamweaver is not able to change permissions on upload3ed files, in this case, you will need to contact the host to have the file permissions corrected.

This is localhost. my server on the same machine.

most likely the folder is set to read only then

using the windows explorer, browse to the powerstore folder, right click it and turn off read only.
