Helps to Register  

We have had the 1999 version working well for a couple of years..Recently - out of the blue - we are no longer able to post new events. I keep getting the following message:
-----------------------------

Error Message:
Can't open for writing!

Debugging Info
File and Directory Locations:

Base Directory ($base_dir): E:/Inetpub/GIS/cgi-bin/Calendar/
Template Directory ($template_dir):
Calendar Events File ($calendar_file):
Current Calendar Template ($calendar_html):
Current View Day Template ($viewday_html):

File Permissions
Any potential problems caused by file permissions or locations will be listed here.
The calendar events file does not exist
The calendar events file is not world-writeable (chmod 777)
The Template directory does not exist
The calendar template file does not exist
The calendar template file is not world-writeable (chmod 777)
The view day template file does not exist
The view day template file is not world-writeable (chmod 777)
---------------------------

After looking at the scripts, it appears the "$base_dir" is listed in the calendar.pl and the calendar_admin.pl at the top od the page.

The other paths appear to be coded relative to the path of the $base_dir as listed in the calendar.cfg file.

Best guess please: Is this a server permissions prob [server admin maintains all persmissions set correctly] or are the other directories meant to be listed on another page [apart from the config file]?

All suggestion greatly appreciated!

Thanks

** Is this a server permissions prob **

Sounds like it to me.

You may also want to check with your ISP/Web Host if they have done any server or software upgrades.  If so this may have reset the permissions or changed the base directory structure.
