The reason you can't CHMOD is probably because it's a Win32 server, on which there's no need for CHMODding. wink

Did you edit the paths in vars_config.cgi to reflect the setup of your server (eg. Environment vars, web paths)? smile

Use a permission changer or something, otherwise those files won't work without being chmodded to be written in.

Chu, why don't you upgrade your UBB to 6.3.1.1? It might fix all your problems...
