folder reachable via HTTP) has 'read-only' permissions with no exceptions made to this restriction.
Any files or folders requiring greater permissions should be put in the 'data' or 'databases' directories, located at the same level as the 'www' folder and referenced there.
To obtain the path to your file(s) located outside the webspace use the Sever.MapPath() function:
path = Server.MapPath("/") & "/../data/[filename]"
We can create a writable folder in the webspace at your request, however, script execute permissions will be turned off for any folder that is writable. We do this because having write and execute in the same folder is a security hole due to how Windows Servers handle user permissions.
If you would like a writable folder created please put in a ticket requesting what folder you would like configured that way and a support technician will create it for you.
