Hello,

I have set up DNN application (3.0.9 version) on a shared web hosting environment. We get an error as follows:

An error has occurred writing to the exception log(D:\Webs\car148\Portals\_default\Logs\Application.xml.resources). The permissions are not set properly on the log file or directory, or the log file has been marked as READ-ONLY.

Message = Access to the path "D:\Webs\car148\Portals\_default\Logs\Application.xml.resources" is denied.This may be a temporary problem so try refreshing yout browser

The shared hosting suport people told us that they chose not to allow setting write permissions on directories that start with an underscore a couple years ago. We tried renaming the "_default" folder but was unsuccessful. It gives "file in use" error. But we need write permissions to "portal/_default/logs" folder.

Is there any other way I can handle this? Any suggestions are welcome. I have been trying to set this up on a shared hosting environment for a long time now and so far no luck. any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Thanks

Waiting for the suggestions
