Yeah, a stack trace would certainly give you better detail. How about parent directories? If the CF user cannot enter one of the parent directories, then it won't be able to write to a sub-directory no matter what the permissions on the subdirectory are.
A good way to test this would be to have CF write to the /tmp directory (a directory that everyone can write to), instead of the directory you're using now. If CF can create the file there, then it's almost certainly a permissions issue. If it cannot, then the problem is somewhere else. Hope this helps!
