AspSimpleUpload problem

[dkn]

Hi

I have a document management system that uses the ASPSimpleUpload component to upload the files to the server. We have recently moved servers and the way the upload performs has changed.

When I was previously uploading a document, if the directory structure it was required to be uploaded to didn't exist, the upload would automatically create it.

Now I can create a single sub directory on the fly, but when I want to create multple level subdirs on the fly I get the an error telling me to check the permissions.

*************************************************
Error:
There was an error writing the uploaded file to the disk. Please check the permissions on the SERVER and make sure the directory (D:\Websites\mySite\html\images\products\logos\) has write permission for the group "Everyone"

example

if I upload a file with say the following path

/test_folder/new_folder/testfile.asp

where only the folder test_folder exists it will create new_folder and save testfile.asp in there.

if I upload a file with the following path

/test_folder/new_folder/new_sub_folder/testfile.asp

I get the above error saying I dont have permissions

I've checked the permissions on the 'test_folder' and 'new_folder' directories after they are created, and they are Full Control All/All, so I don't see why it won't let me create the 'new_sub_folder'.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

(Again, just to stress this was working on the previous web server unaltered so I don't think its the code. Also both servers are running iis4)

Thanks David

I don't think its permissions - but I do think it has to create one directory and once that is established it has to create the sub directory - I don't know what the settings on the previous Server - but that's what I would check.

Unfortunately the previous server isn't with us anymore, so I can't check the settings.

As an aside, does anyone have (or have a link to) the help pages for aspsimpleupload. The only site I can find where they're available is asphelp.com, and this has been inaccessible for a while now.

Thanks

David
