Hey,

I'm having the same problem as Amgeex, running the same IIS with PHP 4 and MySQL 4 on a local computer. The file is definitely writable; in fact everything is writable in my website. And yet the thing still isn't working. I think I've given IUSR modify rights, but I'm not sure where I can access the rights of IUSR directly.

Anyway, I am guessing that it either has something to do with the fact that IIS has extra security measures that don't allow someone to modify a file from within another file, or open a stream from another file. Either that, or there is something that IIS doesn't like about the paths that mainfilemanager.php uses for its copy command:

     var $path = '../mainfile.php';
     var $distfile = '../mainfile.dist.php';

      ...

      function copyDistFile(){
            if ( ! copy($this->distfile, $this->path) ) {

I suppose the third problem could be that the copy command is for some reason rejected by IIS (as too risky?).

Has anyone else found copy() a problem with IIS? Does anyone know how to get around this and still use IIS?

Thanks,

Matt
