I will give it a try. I wrote the site on my development machine and that was win2K, SQL server. This site is for a client who is running it on Linux and MySql so I had to convert everything. Ran into the pitfalls of case sensitivity. Forgot about that from my old Oracle/Unix DBA days. That was frustrating. This is all I have left to do is to get teh file upload piece working. It worked fine in Windows but I am guessing it is a permissions thing here in Linux land.

Have you tried logging in to the box as the user that CF is running as and creating a file in each of the directories leading up to your destination directory? For example, based on your path listed, have you tried this?: touch /home/foo.txt; touch /home/auto1/foo.txt; touch /home/auto1/autocomm-inc.com/foo.txt; touch /home/auto1/autocomm-inc.com/html/foo.tct; touch /home/auto1/autocomm-inc.com/html/dev/foo.txt; The cleanup command for the above is simple: rm -f `find /home -name foo.txt` If you can successfully write as the CF user to each directory, then it might be something else. But for most people on Unix systems, it usually boils down to production. Let us know what happens.
