IIS server settings?

(1/1)

Aquilo:
I was just trying to install another yabbse test script on my server and remembered last time I had to just edit the settings.php file by hand, How can I do CMOD stuff with IIS so scripts like YaBB SE can write to the settings.php file when needed??

also since I'm on the subject how do I setup FTP access to my site so I can browse with smart ftp and set permissions and stuff??

I have Attached a screen shot that I have tried going into the control panel and setting permissions but this is still not allowing install.php to fopen settings.php.

here is an example error when trying to edit the template.

--- Quote ---2: fopen(c:/inetpub/wwwroot/YaBBSE/template.php): failed to open stream: Permission denied
(c:\inetpub\wwwroot\YaBBSE\Sources\Admin.php ln 995)

--- End quote ---

Thanks! Aquilo

That's a security risk.  You never want to check write in there.

Go to the FOLDER (actual hard drive storage) and right click, properties, permissions tab.  Pick the IUSR_COMPUTERNAME (where COMPUTERNAME is the name of your computer.) entry, or add it if it's not there.  Check the modify box.
