Your http error logs almost certainly provide more information but the most likely problem is that the user your web server is running has does not have read permissions to the file or directory. You will also need to edit that file if you haven't already. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Oracle Space Sweepstakes Want to be the first software developer in space?
