Hi there! Interesting... But I really don't understand everything that you say... (cause I'm not a highly qualified expert in the "server-area"... "The best way I've found to test if permission changes take effect is to just grant global permissions to a folder and see if any errors come back." What do you mean by that? How do I do that? "In your particular case, are you sure that the file isn't being locked open by IIS or the PHP process?" No... No idea. How can I check that? Anyway. Thanx for your thoughts! I'm looking further into it...

Many of the things that I've thought IIS would pick up when it recycles the process it didn't. This is particularly troublesome on a production server.. so you have to make sure everything is right the first time around, but I digress. You would THINK that Windows would pick up user permission changes on the fly -- infact as I think more about it I'm positive that it does. The best way I've found to test if permission changes take effect is to just grant global permissions to a folder and see if any errors come back. In your particular case, are you sure that the file isn't being locked open by IIS or the PHP process? That would certainly cause PHP to fail when it attempts to delete the file, and I know that Windows is notorious for needlessly locking files. Make sure that you are properly closing your files and that no threads have it open when you try to delete it. I reckon that would probably take care of your issue.
