Re^3: Server access denied when checking for files

Then from the sounds of it, you don't have permission to write to the directories in which you're trying to move the files. There's also a slight chance that you don't have permission to modify the directory that you're attempting to move the files from (as you're effectively removing an item from that directory)

Can you move files from the command line, without using perl? If so, is the Perl script running under any different permissions than your normal permissions?

I am not at the office right now so I can not check if I can move folders from the command line without using perl or not, I will first thing in the morning, but how would I check or run the perl script's permissions? Thanks for the help.	[reply]

I'm not a windows person, so I don't know if they have a concept like suid (where the program is always run with another set of permissions). But they do have schedulers and the like. If the program is run through a scheduler, there's a reasonable chance that it's running with permissions other than your login. I'd suggest you talk to your system administrator. If you are the system administrator, I'd suggest that you take a look at the preferences and settings in whatever you're using to trigger the script.	[reply]
