Windows XP with IIS - Zencart wont configure

Folks

Appologies if this is going over old ground but I have followed all the advice with no success.

While running zcinstall, I get past the first few pages and all is well (it says my configs are writeable etc. However, when I get to the database details page and click submit, I get the message

Error encountered while writing /includes/configure.php

Im running

Zencart 1.3.6
windows XP prof
PHP 5.2
IIS 5.1

I have chcecked permissions in IIS and in file properties and all say the config files are writeable and yet I still get no joy. I even made every damn file writeable in a last fit of frustration...been at this for 3 days now ! :blink: :blink: :blink:

All files are installed in

inetpub/wwwroot/

Any help appreciated.
Neil.

Might see if the issue is related to this 5.2.0 bug ...
