Hi all

I have made a skin package and have it tested on on development machine smoothly. but when I tried to upload it to my hosting server I got this ****

"Error: File Upload is currently unavailable.

DotNetNuke.Services.Exceptions.ModuleLoadException: Access to the path 'd:\inetpub\wwwroot\adviserlinkconz\Adviserlink\Website\Portals\_default\Skins\AdviserlinkTest' is denied. ---> System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'd:\inetpub\wwwroot\adviserlinkconz\Adviserlink\Website\Portals\_default\Skins\AdviserlinkTest' is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath) at System.IO.Directory.InternalCreateDirectory(String fullPath, String path, DirectorySecurity dirSecurity) at System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(String path, DirectorySecurity directorySecurity) at DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.SkinController.UploadSkin(String RootPath, String SkinRoot, String SkinName, Stream objInputStream) at DotNetNuke.UI.Skins.SkinController.UploadSkin(String RootPath, String SkinRoot, String SkinName, Stream objInputStream) at DotNetNuke.Modules.Admin.FileSystem.WebUpload.cmdAdd_Click(Object sender, EventArgs e) --- End of inner exception stack trace ---"

it was totally fine to upload and apply skin last time. What is the problem here? Is it something to do with the 'Webiste' folder permission?

any advice will be appriciate.

It looks like an permission problem, try if you can install an other skin (e.g. just rename one of the default dnn skins). If that does not work you definately have a permission problem and you have to reset the permissions of the file structure on the server.

Thanx. problem solved after hoster set permission to 'modify', but my hoster did the setting very reluctantly. he said it is not secute for my website. and he said "u never set the permission to be 'full control'" when i asked for setting permission to 'full control'.

my another question is what permission should i have to the 'website' folder after decide to launch the website.

lastly, has anyone try 'XCopy' in DNN4.XX? i follow the instructions on the installation menual, it says 'the system can reconize the skin package and install it', but it seems does not work for me. i uploaded my skinpake like XXX.zip on \website\install\ derectroy, and then open the website, i found the skin package does not get installed automatically.

Any one can share ur idea with my 2 questions above?
