Hi,
After many seamless Evo installs on Apache, I’m attempting my first Revolution install on IIS 7 but getting Fatal errors and the host has said they "normally only grant the IIS user write permissions to paths we know the application is going to write data to - such as upload/media/temp directories" and asked which directories need write access.
Can anyone tell me, or point me to a list of which directories need write access, or more generally the correct permissions required on folders?
PS. This is in relation to a previous ’FATAL ERROR: MODX Setup cannot continue’ error message that has been resolved, but I now get another:
FATAL ERROR: MODX Setup cannot continue.
Make sure your D:/Sites/mywebsite.com/www/core/cache directory exists and is writable by the PHP process.

If you get a blank screen or cannot proceed after clicking ’Install’, verify these steps:
1. Make sure the directories "/core/packages","/core/cache", "/core/import", and "/core/export" are writable.
2. Make sure your php.ini setting sets memory_limit to 128M, and max_execution_time to 120
3. Create a blank file "/core/config/config.inc.php" and make it writable. DO NOT COPY config.inc.tpl! Just make it a blank file!
4. Post a message in the Revolution forum regarding your issue. State your server setup and installation info, and we’ll try and help you find a solution.

Thanks for your help, the site is running now. I missed the IIS child board under General to put this on, sorry.
