When I try to upgrade to the latest version of dotnetnuke I get a permission errors.. on the screen a lot of things come up as failing and the error message below displays at the bottom of the page.  From what I can see All Users have full control of the web.config file

Any ideas?

=============================================================

Access to the path '\\PDC1\sites\i\identipro.co.uk\public_html\web.config' is denied.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '\\PDC1\sites\i\identipro.co.uk\public_html\web.config' is denied.

ASP.NET is not authorized to access the requested resource. Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}\ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.

To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.

please check permissions for the machine account, specified in IIS app pool you are using. also make sure, the file is not write protected.
