How have you been copying from another machine
- if from a CD remove all read only attributes from all files and folders after the copy
The service.lck error will also come from a read only attribute in the FP web folders
| Thanks Thomas
|
| I've tried this loading it from another machine with a
| server running, but still no joy I'm afraid.
|
| I can't even save/publish a brand new web as I get the
| service.lck message.
|
| I'm really stumped with this one. I can't help wondering
| if it's something to do with the lack of IIS or PWS in XP
| home.
|
| I've found an article which mentions this. Is it relevant?
